Full control over pressure/temperature values (test edge cases). Cons: Requires scripting knowledge (Python, C#).
For advanced users seeking realistic simulation, this is the most powerful technique.
Add a component to Proteus. Connect its RX pin to the Arduino's TX pin (Pin 1). Click the Play button at the bottom left of Proteus. bmp280 proteus library

How to Use the BMP280 Sensor in Proteus: A Complete Guide to Libraries and Simulation Add a component to Proteus
For a pure logic test of your BMP280 library, use Wokwi . It has a genuine BMP280 model and runs in your browser. Once your code works, move to Proteus to simulate the rest of your circuit (display, power supply, microcontroller).
Without a proper library, Proteus cannot simulate the BMP280's behavior, rendering I2C/SPI communication exercises ineffective. The library transforms the BMP280 from a static symbol into a dynamic, interactive component that behaves like its physical counterpart. If you need help setting up your simulation,
: Many users download generic Proteus sensor library packs and extract the BMP280 model for standalone use.
