Temporary Result files (html, xml)

[morngoose]

I find TestStand creates temporary .html and .xml files in the seq folder and also the directory where the results is saved.

This is when using HTML reports, and specifying the path (avoiding the temporary results check-box option)

Any one else also experiencing this ?

TestStand creates temporary .html files during an execution to allow the report to be shown in the Sequence Editor during execution. This KnowledgeBase article describes the temporary files in more detail: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/D327A5B3227E8F40862568470008409F?OpenDocument

It's interesting that you're seeing a temporary .xml file without having the "Use Temporary File" option enabled for an XML report. If you execute a very simple sequence (for example, just a Message Popup step) with the default Sequential process model, do you still see this temporary XML file?
