 <p>This guide aims to provide the best practices for using the scripting capabilities provided by COSMOS. Scripts are used to automate a series of activities for operations or testing. The goal of this document is to ensure scripts are written that are simple, easy to understand, maintainable, and correct. Guidance on some of the key details of using the COSMOS Script Runner is also provided.</p>
 <h2 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_fF9Z" id=concepts>Concepts<a href=#concepts class=hash-link aria-label="Direct link to Concepts" title="Direct link to Concepts"></a></h2>
 <p>COSMOS supports both Ruby and Python for writing scripts. Ruby and Python are very similar scripting languages and most of this guide applies directly to both. Where examples are used, both a Ruby and Python example are given.</p>
