Placeholders for ELF or HEX file can be provided as ${elf} or ${hex}. If more than one ELF file was defined, they will be given to the start script as separate arguments.
ELF file		uri	Local path of the ELF file (relative to the workspace). If set to <auto>, the entry from the test configuration will be used. A \| may be used to separate multiple ELF files.
HEX-File		uri	Local path of the HEX file (relative to the workspace). If set to <auto>, the entry from the test configuration will be used
