TestStand Project Folder Structure

[python007]

Hi to all

Is there a Guideline or best practice for the Folder structure for a TestStand Project.

I have a Project with a lot of Sub-Sequences and external Libraries and I don't know whats the best way to organize them.

What is your best approach?

Generally speaking…. Your main sequence file on toplevel, all dependencies in folder underneath.

This also leads to a very lean search directory structure 

At least that’s what I recommend 

are you using a TestStand Workspace?

Sometling like below works for me:

TopLevelSequelce.seq

subsequences\..\subsequence.seq

bin\mynice.dll

config\

docs\images\img1.png

key is to have all referenced as relative paths so when You deploy/move folder all works.

Thanks for your answers

For me it is not clear where to place the code Modules for the subsequnces and how to deal with it when you have a code Modules used in more than one subsequnce?

I tend to put most of my library folders on the same file hierarchy level.

If they refer to each other, they only need to "jump up a folder" and "jump in" the appropriate other.

BTW.... using a TestStand Workspace can also help.

Thanks a lot for your tips. In my next Project I will try to implement your tips!
