Recommended simulation EPICS IOC to test EpicsMotor #1210
Description
What is the recommended simulation IOC to test EpicsMotor in Ophyd ?
I mean, to have a realistic behaviour, with real timings etc ?
I just gave a try to https://github.com/epics-motor/motorMotorSim . It does not seem to be very compatible,
since I have errors like:
