+******************************************
+
+This module provides an object to control the Aerotech Abr rotational stage.
+
+Methods in the Abr class
+========================
+
+Standard bluesky interface:
+    AerotechAbrStage.configure(d={...})
+    AerotechAbrStage.kickoff()
+    AerotechAbrStage.stop()
+Additional bluesky functionality:
+
+
+
+
+
+Aerotech.is_homed()
+Aerotech.do_homing(wait=True)
+Aerotech.get_ready(ostart=None, orange=None, etime=None, wait=True)
+Aerotech.is_done()
+Aerotech.is_ready()
+Aerotech.is_busy()
+Aerotech.start_exposure()
+Aerotech.wait_status(status)
+Aerotech.move(angle, wait=False, speed=None)
+Aerotech.set_shutter(state)
+
+
+    Returns the axis mode: ``-ES-DF1:AXES-MODE``
+
+Examples
+========
+
+    abr = AerotechAbrStage(prefix="X06DA-ES-DF1", name="abr")
+
+      # move omega to 270.0 degrees
+      abr.omega = 270.0
+
+      # move omega to 180 degrees and wait for movement to finish
+      abr.move(180, wait=True)
+
+      # move omega to 3000 degrees at 360 degrees/s and wait for movement to finish
+      abr.move(3000, velocity=360, wait=True)
+
+      # stop any movement
+      abr.stop() # this function only returns after the STATUS is back to OK

+| A3200Axis | Positioner wrapper for A3200 axes<br><br><br>    Positioner wrapper for motors on the Aerotech A3200 controller. As the IOC<br>    does not provide a motor record, this class simply wraps axes into a<br>    standard Ophyd positioner for the BEC. It also has some additional<br>    functionality for error checking and diagnostics.<br><br>    Examples<br>    --------<br>    omega = A3200Axis('X06DA-ES-DF1:OMEGA', base_pv='X06DA-ES')<br><br>    Parameters<br>    ----------<br>    prefix : str<br>        Axis PV name root.<br>    base_pv : str (situational)<br>        IOC PV name root, i.e. X06DA-ES if standalone class.<br>     | [pxiii_bec.devices.A3200utils](https://gitlab.psi.ch/bec/pxiii_bec/-/blob/main/pxiii_bec/devices/A3200utils.py) |
+| AerotechAbrStage | Standard PX stage on A3200 controller<br><br>    This is the wrapper class for the standard rotation stage layout for the PX<br>    beamlines at SLS. It wraps the main rotation axis OMEGA (Aerotech ABR)and<br>    the associated motion axes GMX, GMY and GMZ. The ophyd class associates to<br>    the general PX measurement procedure, which is that the actual scan script<br>    is running as an AeroBasic program on the controller and we communicate to<br>    it via 10+1 global variables.<br>     | [pxiii_bec.devices.A3200](https://gitlab.psi.ch/bec/pxiii_bec/-/blob/main/pxiii_bec/devices/A3200.py) |
+| NDArrayPreview | Wrapper class around AreaDetector's NDStdArray plugins<br><br>    This is a standalone class to display images from AreaDetector's<br>    ImagePlugin without using a parent device. It also offers BEC exposed<br>    methods to transfer image and change image array Kind-ness.<br><br>    NOTE: As an explicit request, it can toggle data recording<br>     | [pxiii_bec.devices.NDArrayPreview](https://gitlab.psi.ch/bec/pxiii_bec/-/blob/main/pxiii_bec/devices/NDArrayPreview.py) |
+| SamCamDetector | Sample camera device<br><br>    The SAMCAM continously streams images to the GUI and sample alignment<br>    scripts via ZMQ.<br>     | [pxiii_bec.devices.SamCamDetector](https://gitlab.psi.ch/bec/pxiii_bec/-/blob/main/pxiii_bec/devices/SamCamDetector.py) |
+| SmarGonAxis | SmarGon client deice<br><br>    This class controls the SmarGon goniometer via the REST interface. All<br>    SmarGon axes share a common mutex to manage actual HW access.<br>     | [pxiii_bec.devices.SmarGonB](https://gitlab.psi.ch/bec/pxiii_bec/-/blob/main/pxiii_bec/devices/SmarGonB.py) |
+| StdDaqPreviewDetector | Detector wrapper class around the StdDaq preview image stream.<br><br>    This was meant to provide live image stream directly from the StdDAQ but<br>    also works with other ARRAY v1 streamers, like the AreaDetector ZMQ plugin.<br>    Note that the preview stream must be already throtled in order to cope with<br>    the incoming data and the python class might throttle it further.<br><br>    NOTE: As an explicit request, it does not record the image data.<br><br>    You can add a preview widget to the dock by:<br>    cam_widget = gui.add_dock('cam_dock1').add_widget('BECFigure').image('daq_stream1')<br>     | [pxiii_bec.devices.StdDaqPreview](https://gitlab.psi.ch/bec/pxiii_bec/-/blob/main/pxiii_bec/devices/StdDaqPreview.py) |

 ## Introduction
 
 Tests in this package should be stored in the `tests` directory.
 We suggest to sort tests of different submodules, i.e. `scans` or `devices` in the respective folder structure, and to folow a naming convention of `<test_module_name.py>`.
+It is mandatory for test files to begin with `test_` for pytest to discover them.

-``` bash

 Note, the python environment needs to be active.
 The additional arg `-v` allows pytest to run in verbose mode which provides more detailed information about the tests being run.
-The argument `--random-order` instructs pytest to run the tests in random order, which is the default in the CI pipelines.

 We recommend writing tests as isolated as possible, i.e. try to test single functions instead of full classes.
 A very useful class to enable isolated testing is [MagicMock](https://docs.python.org/3/library/unittest.mock.html).
