How can we generate the YAML measurement manifest?

Last time there was a GUI-based app that could be downloaded at pip install SiEPICLabTestParam3 python

This defined a YAML file with a list of devices (from gds labels) associated with tests:

Devices:
  EBeam,JoaquinMatres,Simon,2,6:
    DeviceID: EBeam,JoaquinMatres,Simon,2,6
    Electrical Coordinates: []
    Optical Coordinates:
    - 57.0
    - 5972.0
    Polarization: TE
    RoutineCheck: true
    Routines:
    - Fixed Voltage Wavelength Sweep:JoaquinSimon
    Type: device
    Wavelength: '1550'

And tests:

      Channel B: true

      IV: false

The testing routine creation software is ready to be used and can be found on the SiEPICLab GitHub repository (https://github.com/SiEPIC/SiEPIClab). The executable can be found under the release called Testing Paramaters.
