nRF Connect for VS Code

If you have built a sample or application included with the nRF Connect SDK without modifying it, you can test it by following the steps in the Testing section of its nRF Connect SDK documentation page. If you have made changes to your application, the steps may not be accurate for your use case, but you can still use them for reference.

To access the testing steps, open the nRF Connect SDK documentation page for the chosen application or sample. To do this from the extension, complete the following steps:

  1. In the Welcome View, click Browse samples.

    Browse samples in the Welcome View

  2. If you have multiple SDK versions installed, select the SDK version to copy the sample from.
    This opens the Sample Browser dialog for the selected version.

  3. Type the name of the application or sample you have built and want to test.
    You can also use one of the available Sample browser filters to filter the list.
  4. Hover over the application or sample entry in the list.
    The Open Documentation button appears.
  5. Click the Open Documentation button.
    The documentation page opens in the browser.

Follow the steps listed in the Testing section on the opened page.
