"""
Note: This test relies on boardenv_* containing configuration values to define
spi minimum and maximum frequencies at which the flash part can operate on and
these tests run at different spi frequency randomised values in the range
multiple times based on the user defined iteration value.
It also defines the SPI bus number containing the SPI-flash chip, SPI
chip-select, SPI mode, SPI flash part name and timeout parameters. If minimum
and maximum frequency is not defined, it will run on freq 0 by default.

Without the boardenv_* configuration, this test will be automatically skipped.

It also relies on configuration values for supported flashes for lock and
unlock cases for SPI family flash. It will run lock-unlock cases only for the
supported flash parts.

For Example:

# Details of SPI device test parameters required for SPI device testing:

# bus - SPI bus number to init the flash device
# chip_select - SPI chip select number to init the flash device
# min_freq - Minimum frequency in hz at which the flash part can operate, set 0
# or None for default frequency
# max_freq - Maximum frequency in hz at which the flash part can operate, set 0
# or None for default frequency
# mode - SPI mode to init the flash device
# part_name - SPI flash part name to be detected
# timeout - Default timeout to run the sf commands
# iteration - No of iteration to run SPI flash test
