Selectable Analysis Levels for Unit Test Framework

Status: New

The Unit Test Framwork provides some useful statistics on code coverage and project coverage of tests but these mean that it is much slower than other frameworks.

In particular the project coverage causes a very long results load time (>5mins AFTER test completion) on a RT target as it appears to load (and possibly compile) the VIs for the target.

 

It would be great to have an option to disable these high levels of reporting for day to day tests to speed up development.

100% agree. Having written a unit test framework for LabVIEW myself, the inclusion of code coverage / analysis of the block diagrams is the most likely culprit for the dramatic slow-downs running tests.
