Printing failed results, not Begin and End of Sequence.

[Hugh S]

Hi
Using TestStand 2.0
I am using a ticket printer to show test failures.
I have added a print line into the process sequence and formated the header with no problems, changing reportgen_txt.
The "report options" are set to ASCii format and to exclude Passed/Done/Skipped results.

The ticket prints nicely. But it shows every sequence call with a:-
Begin Sequence: 1
(C:\Sequence Name)
End Sequence: 1

I have 67 sequences, this is a lot of wasted paper.

Does anyone know of an expresion that I can add into "Report Options" to remove this sequence info?
Or is there another way of doing what I want?

Thanks
Hugh

Hi!

I found myself into a similar situation when I needed to create my own customized report.

What you need to do is modify the reportgen_txt.seq sequence file. Go the sequence called AddSequenceResultToReport. The steps called AddSequenceName and AddSequenceEndMarker add the "Begin Sequence..." and "End Sequence" labels. You can modify or delete these steps.

For anyone using the HTML report, you can modify the reportgen_html.seq. The sequence and step names are the same.

I hope this helps you.

Good Luck,

Marcela

Its time to own up to a silly.
What I had missed was that Record Results was checked in the Properties � Run Options.
This comes on as a default. Well on my installation anyway.

A sequence call is not a test so does not have a Pass/Fail associated with it.
My original expression in Report Options could not have affected these step printouts.

Thanks anyway for the response.
