pyfrc - RobotPy development library helper

[](https://travis-ci.org/robotpy/pyfrc)

pyfrc is a python 3 library designed to make developing python code using WPILib for FIRST Robotics Competition easier.

This library contains a few primary parts:

• A built-in uploader that will upload your robot code to the robot
• Integration with the py.test testing tool to allow you to easily write unit tests for your robot code.
• A robot simulator tool which allows you to run your code in (vaguely) real time and get simple feedback via a tk-based UI
