VI under test has String Control configured for password display mode, it shows in "normal display mode" in Unit Test Framework lvtest properties dialog

Password configuration does not carry to UTF lvtest properties dialog window. It's probably a bug.

Hey jorgeinSD,

The Unit Test is meant to test input values and compare them with a desired output value to make sure your VI works under different inputs. Because of this, it is necessary for the user doing the testing to see the input values and not just "*****". Your VI shouldn't change (as in the VI should still display in password mode, "****"), but the Unit Test properties should display the actual value and not in password mode. Is this what you mean by "Password configuration does not carry to UTF" or did I misunderstand the question? I hope this helps!
