Something like subVI but for teststand

[jansiroky]

Greetings friday people.

I am quiet noob playing with TestStand, so please be patient with me. I would like to ask if there is some clever way to connect and hide a bunch of statements in TestStand. Like we do in Labview creating subvi to maintain high transparency of code and to be able to reuse it.

Thanks a lot for any suggestion.

Have a mice day.

There are two options I can think of depending on your intent. First, statement steps can include multiple lines already so you can have long complicated code show up as a single step that is copied and displayed as a single line item in the sequence.

Second, and more analogous to a subVI, is a Sequence Call step. This step executes a TestStand sequence as a step. You can make a library of simple sequences, and then reuse them multiple times in the MainSequence. Go to the TestStand Examples folder and check out the 'Parallel Testing Strategies' for this feature.

Sounds great.

Thanx for your explanation.
