You need to set the target type. Either use the --target command line argument, or target_override user option (best set in a pyocd.yaml config file). When running the functional tests you have to use a config file (in the test/ directory) to set the target type, as well as set the test_binary option (set to just the name, not a path, of a file in the binaries/ directory).

You can check the Target type is x log message to verify which target pyOCD is using. If no target type is set it will default to "cortex_m", which doesn't have flash support or a memory map.

I had already done that. but i named the .yaml file "test_boards" instead of "pyocd". Rename the file to pyocd solved the problem. Thank you @flit .

Is "test_boards.yaml" still mentioned in the docs? I checked, but could easily have missed it.

Closed #625.

No, it is not mentioned in this docs. I did not use this docs. But i saw the same thing in a past issue solutions. And there, it was indicated to use a test_boards.yaml.
Honestly, i thought the file name did not matter.

Well, originally it was "test_boards.yaml". But when I added general config file support via "pyocd.yaml", I changed the functional tests to use that so there was only one config file name.
