Teststand report UUT result

Hi,
I execute a teststand sequence from Labview using teststand's API.
From Labview I'd like to get the UUT report result ("passed" or "failed") of the Teststand sequence I execute.
Which Active x Invoke method or property node must i use?
I have looked for in teststand help but up to now i haven't found.
Thank you,
Alexandre

Hello,
TestStand stores Step results in a Local variable called ResultList, which is an initially empty array of conatiners. After a test step executes, its results are added to the Locals.ResultList array. If you do not want the results of the "first pass" on a step to be recorded, you must delete its entry out of the ResultList array. If you are using TestStand 2.0.x then there is a callback called "PostResultListEntry". You can add code into this callback to delete the entry from the ResultList. All you need to add is a simple expression (i.e. statement step) that will delete the last element out of the array. You will need to add a variable in order to keep track of the number of times the test has failed. If the global informs that this is the f
irst fail on that test step, then delete the element, otherwise do not. This way when the seqeunce is complete, you will have your desired results. I suggest you experiment with the various Engine callbacks to see how they work. You can get access to them by selecting Edit>>Sequence File Callbacks... from within the Sequence Editor.
I hope this helps.

Best way to get UUT result to Custom TestStand UI

Hello,
I am trying to get the results of my UUT to my custom UI. I am already using the EndExecution Callback to tell my UI when the UUT is finished executing. I was hoping ot use that same callback VI to tell my UI the result of the execution.
The EndExecution callback includes a reference to the execution. I figured I could read the "ResultStatus" Property, which seems to report "Passed" or "Failed" correctly, but if I terminate execution, it is still returning "Passed", when I would expect it to return "Terminated".
Does anybody have any thoughts on what I am doing wrong or what might be a better way to do this? I thought of just using a UI Message, but then that requires me to modify the client sequence and post the UI message with the results. I'd rather have this work for all client sequences.
Solved!

I think you are looking for handling the UIMsg_ModelState_TestingComplete user interface message.
Refer to the help:
UIMsg_ModelState_TestingComplete–(Value: 34) TestStand process models post this message to the user interface after the MainSequence in the client sequence file returns control to the model. If the execution is not a batch controller or a parallel controller, the stringDataParam parameter specifies the UUT result status. If the execution is a batch controller or a parallel controller, the value of the stringDataParam parameter is Done. The numericDataParam parameter specifies the test-socket index. The activeXDataParam parameter contains a reference to the sequence context for the process model sequence file that posts the message.

TESTSTAND 2013 中的UUT report 参数路径

我在用TestStand做测试时，需要自己制作一个Excel报表，里面要用到UUT Report 中Execution Time 和UUT Result 两项的结果，这两项的参数路径分别是什么

在插件中，你会得到的执行时间和UUT的结果。然后你可以把那些到Excel使用LabVIEW或代码模块。
希望这会有所帮助，

TestStand Lookup String for UUT Result Passed/Failed

When I am in CleanUp group,what is the lookup string for UUT Result=Passed or Failed. That is all steps in main group passed = UUT Result=Passed. I am using Labview.

Using RunState.SequenceFailed called from Cleanup step in TestStand sequence seems to work reliably for me but using RunState. ErrorReported does not. It seems as though the sequence context becomes invalid or something (although I get no error when accessing this property). It does not always come back true when a runtime error has occurred. Any ideas?
Thanks, Roger Owens [email protected]

Report multiple failures with TestStand reporting

I'm pretty new to TestStand so please bear with me. I'm using LabView to test a connector on a digital interface board. So I'm reading and writing dig. signals on say 15 pins in a test. I'm using TestStand to run my VI's. When a test fails TestStand seems to only report one measurement at a time. I want all of the pins that failed to show up in the TestStand report in a format like :
InputPin:A1 OutputPin:B1 Expected:0 Read:1
InputPin:a2 outpuPIn:b1 expected:1 read:0
I tried using the ReportText section of the TestData Cluster but I couldn't format it properly. All of the data sort of runs into each other like this
input:a1 output:b1 expect:0 read:1 input:a2 output:b2
the carriage returns I tried to put in were i
gnored.
Does anybody know how I can report a lot of failures in one report. I hope I explained properly.Thanks

Hi,
Find attached an example using the MultipleNumericLimitTest step type.
All it does is use the array found in Locals call Digital as the DataSource for the Limits. You can check this by selecting the step and doing a right mouse click - select Edit Limits. Then select the Data source Tab. I have add 16 Measurements, one for each of the array elements.
This will give a you a result of each element of the array in the report for that step. But by default it will look like:
Measurement[0] (Measurement 0):
Limits:
Low: 0b1
Comparison Type: EQ (==)
Data: 0b0
Status: Failed
To get the format you require will mean modifying the report sequence file.
Hope this helps a bit

How can I include a Labview graph in a TestStand report?

Hi All,
I have a new need that I have never done before in TestStand. I have a Labview VI in which I am sending results to a graph.. I would like to include that graph in the TestStand report. I have searched the help and the forums and have come up empty. Any ideas out there as to how to accomplish this? Thanks in advance for any help.
Troy
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Raj - Thanks for the response and that solution does work. The problem is that the graphs that I am including are more elaborate than what TestStand is doing by default. Some of the graphs will have three traces on them to show spectral masks test with lower and upper limits. These graphs will also be used in reports and I would like them to show up larger, kind of like when you have a graph in Labview and you can use its reference to save it to an HTML report.

How do i output a table in a teststand report

I'm using TestStand 3.0 and Labview 7.0. I have a string table in my labview step that i want to see in the teststand report. How do i do this? thanks

Hello, J.Venkatesh!
In the future, we'd really appreciate it if you'd create new forum threads for new questions - this allows us to better manage the forums and gives our users the ability to search for questions by forum thread/topic!
That being said, the solution provided by Matt P. in 2004 still applies to you. Even though you're using a TestStand XML report and a LabVIEW Array instead of a LabVIEW table, you can still embed HTML tags into the XML report. Simply index into and parse your LabVIEW array into strings, include the appropriate HTML table tags and then pass this HTML string back to TestStand. This string can then be placed into the Step.Result.ReportText field of any step and will be formatted into a table, as you desire.
Modifying Matt's LabVIEW VI is as simple as replacing the LabVIEW table with a LabVIEW array and then using a Number to Decimal String.vi in order to cast the numbers as strings - those are the only modifications you need to make!
I hope this helps!

How to eliminate an instance of "entering a sequence call" from the teststand report

I am using TestStand 4.2 and I am using a long sequence with several sub-sequences. In these subsequences I am getting test results that I would like to place in the TestStand report. Currently, in order to do this I have to check the "Record Result" option in the "Run Options" of the sequence call properties which displays an "Entering sequence call" mark on the report. Is there any way that I can get rid of this marker and still record information from the sub sequence?

Teststand Report generation doc

Hi Guys,
I'm looking into TestStand reports right now, but I have to admit that I'm a little bit lost...
I would like to get an easy "manual" on how to edit the reports so I can get my own formating in the report...
For example, I would like to present my test results like this
Description of test (name) || Low limit || Measurement || High Limit || Pass/Fail.
This would be the case for every test step.
Also , I would like to have a customized header with a logo, and some additional Information like operator name, SN, etc
A solution I was thinking about was to send all my data back in LabVIEW and generate the report from there, which is quite easy... I found a way to get back part of my data, but unfortunately, the NumericLimitTest steps don' return the Result... (the function I used is on this page http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=330&message.id=1311&requireLogin=False) >> TestStand-Labview-Resultlist.vi is the one I used.
Could you help me on this?
Thanks a lot
Matthieu

Hi Matthieu,
Here is a Developer Zone article that should help get your starting with understanding how report generation works: Report Generation Explained .
See the following knowledge base article for information about logging data of a step: How do I Modify a Step Type to Log Data into a Report?
If you are using an HTML report, please see the following knowledge base article for information about how to customize your header information: Modifying HTML Report Headers to Include Custom Information in TestStand .
This should get you started with reporting in TestStand. I think that you will find that TestStand is better suited for reporting as you become more familiar with it.

While drilling up/down the report, the results are displayed after delay

We have a WebI Report whose hierarchy is based on the time Year -> Quarter -> Month -> Day -> Hour -> 30 mins.
While drilling up/down the report, the results are displayed after much delay and most of the time, all / some of the values are displayed as "#REFRESH" or '##########'. However, if i refresh it, all the values are displayed.
What could be the cause for this issue? and how to troubleshoot it?
Thanks In Advance!!!

hi,
This error appears in cells due to smart measures when the value returned by the smart measure is not available. This occurs when the grouping set containing the value is not available with the data provider.
Remove the error by refreshing the data.

Quiz Reporting - No results are populated! Please HELP

Greetings,
I am currently developing a quiz for internal use. Something
very simple. I publish in flash, I have only 7 (short answer)
questions. However when I complete the questionaire, my email
client launches with the proper subject line, but that's it. I have
used multiple email clients (Outlook, OutlookExpress, Thunderbird)
with the lowest security settings available. I have also configured
my gloabl flash settings to allow everything. Even with all this
done I still get nothing. I've researched and found that Adobe
Captivate2 is compatible with my version of IE, although I haven't
had success with Firefox either. I have used 3 different computers
on my company's network, and 2 laptops that aren't even on it, in
addition my computer at the house.
Below are my settings I have been using (per Adobe's
instructions)
Reporting - enabled (email, with my email address filled in)
Report status as defined by report data
Report quiz results only
Report Interactions and score
Please help! Captivate is a great utility that I love
utilizing, but I feel this is a huge deficiency per my needs.
Adobe's Tech Support could not help. I emailed them my project and
they said it worked just fine on their computer. Which I find hard
to believe given the 6+ computers I have tried to use this on. The
final suggestion they had was to create an entirly new project from
scratch with Captivate2 (originally was using 1), but I have seen
no difference.
Thank You

Hi chazzzmd and welcome to our community
Unfortunately, E-Mail is pretty weak and convoluted. Results
vary widely and are largely undesirable. But even so, are you able
to post the .CP file or resulting movie somewhere where the rest of
us can see it? Maybe one of us will see something that will help.
I've seen many here use something called
YouSendIt to do this.
Cheers... Rick

Teststand report size

The teststand report size in xml format is almost 200 times bigger than html format. Does anyone know why is this? And how to decrease the xml report size. This is very importment to my application.
Thanks
Franklin Pang

Howdy Franklin,
XML files by nature are going to be large. This is mostly due to the fact that a large number of tags are needed to describe any data. Additionally, the files are saved in ASCII format, making it easy to read in any text editor, but even larger in size.
A solution in this case would be to write your own XML schema which is streamlined for the minimum amount of information and tags needed to describe the data. However, this is a complex solution that would require you to have good knowledge of XML. Also, you would save some space, but the optimized schema still may not fit your size needs.
If size is very important for your reporting needs, you may want to consider using HTML or ASCII reporting as an alternative.
Thanks and have a great day!

TestStand 3.5 is not reporting step results for under three steps

Is there a minimum number of steps that need to return results from a called sequence in order for them to be reported?
Here a description of my problem:
My main test code calls a sequence file that contains a varying number of test steps in the Main section of the sequence file. There are also some Setup and Cleanup steps that do not return results to the main test code. When my number of test steps is at least three, everything works fine and all test step's results appear in the report. When my number of test steps is less than three, no results are shown in the report. In addition, if I record results of a miscellaneous step in the Cleanup section and have two test steps in the Main section (so a total of three steps returning results to the main test code) then the results appear in the report.
I verified that this was not particular to my piece of code by creating two new sequence files: one with three steps (Test 1, Test 2, Test 3), and one that calls the first. When at least three steps are present, the results of each step are recorded, but when I erase Test 3, nothing is reported.
Any help would be appreciated!

Hi,
Please find attached an updated report sequence file.
The problem was because you had skipped the Sequence Name steps. This adds two extra lines to the report. Therefore in the precondition of 'Remove Empty Sequence Results' step, the expression was still deducting these two lines, which longer exist in the report. Hence the reason why you were lossing the step results in the Sequence.
I have removed the -2 from the expression.
Hope this explains everything for you.

How do I prevent reporting Button Index line of Message Popup Result in TestStand report??

My Message Popup is reported as:
Verify that the Installed memory (RAM) is 1.96 GB: Passed
Button Index: 1
What is the best way to prevent reporting the Button Index line?

For your step in the sequence open Step.Result in Variables pane, right click on ButtonHit, select Advanced>Edit Flags and uncheck "Include in Report" property. It is checked by default for custom step types created as combined types with the Message Popup general type.
That should be done for all instances of these step. When I tried just to incheck the "Include in Report" property in my step type, somehow it is still checked for all newly created steps of this step type. Possible solutions (besides changing them all manually as I described above) are to modify them at drop time from OnNewStep custom substep or to create automated script and run it on your sequences after creation to modify the flag.
Let me know if you need help with these solutions.
