Generate TestStand types from Python types.

Creating types in TestStand is a manual (and error-prone) process. Is there any documentation on the structure of a TestStand Palette ("ini) file? I would like to automatically generate these palette files from existing Python types when we "build" our Python packages.

 

Thanks,

Joe

Do you plan to create custom step types? or step templates?

Thanks for the reply santo_13, I am new to TS but I was looking to create (define) custom data types , described in https://www.ni.com/docs/en-US/bundle/teststand/page/creating-custom-data-types.html

 

 

Thanks,

Joe
