Highlights

Notable Differences

TcUnit	co♻e
1. RTargets Beckhoff systems	Targets any compatible CODESYS based system, including Beckhoff
2. Uses bespoke C# runner	Uses CODESYS IDE built-in Python scripting technology as runner*
3. Uses ADS protocol to collect reports from TwinCAT XAE IDE	Generates XML reports at runtime at a specified location on PLC filesystem or (networked) drive

• Leverages well documented codesys.exe CLI and Python Scripting Interface

Assistance provided by @aliazzz, @ingo and @i-campbell greatly appreciated.
Without their assistance, porting alone would have taken me several months.
Kudos for helping me out with various tickets and providing invaluable feedback!
