Listing errors prior to running a sequence

Solved!
Go to solution

Is there a way to display\list errors in TestStand prior to running a sequence.

 

For example, a section of code changes. It now has more parameters being sent to a function inside a dll.

 

Up until now the only way to find it to run the code, wait for it to error out, then trace where the offending parameter is.

 

any suggestions?

 

thanks

In TestStand 4.5 and later you can analyze your sequence file and catch this.  Unfortunately before that there is no way to do so.

As jigg mentioned only the latest TestStand has this feature but it only analyzes the TestStand side of your sequence files. It doesn't analyse inside your code modules only the TestStand interface to the code module.

Am I wrong or is this an add-on?

 

I was looking (hoping) for a solution that was in the purchased package.

 

Is there any other solution?

 

thanks

This is part of 2010 (4.5).  It is not an add-on.
