Test Data Cluster

The LabVIEW Adapter uses the Test Data cluster to return result data from the VI to TestStand, which then uses the data to make a pass/fail determination.

The following table lists the elements of the Test Data cluster, specifies the data type of the cluster element, describes how the LabVIEW Adapter uses each cluster element, and specifies the TestStand property to which the adapter copies the cluster element value.

Cluster Element Data Type Description TestStand Property to Which the Adapter Copies the Value
PASS/FAIL Flag The test VI sets this element to indicate whether the test passed. Valid values are True (PASS) or False (FAIL). Step.Result.PassFail
Numeric Measurement Numeric measurement the test VI returns. Step.Result.Numeric
String Measurement String value the test VI returns. Step.Result.String
Report Text Output message to include in the report. Step.Result.ReportText

Legacy Test Data Cluster

The LabVIEW Adapter also supports a legacy version of the Test Data cluster from the LabVIEW Test Executive. The LabVIEW Test Executive Test Data cluster does not contain a Report Text element but instead contains the Comment and User Output string elements.

The following table lists the elements of the legacy Test Data cluster, specifies the data type of the cluster element, describes how the LabVIEW Adapter uses each cluster element, and specifies the TestStand property to which the adapter copies the cluster element value.

Cluster Element Data Type Description TestStand Property to Which the Adapter Copies the Value
Comment Output message to include in the report. Step.Result.ReportText
User Output String value the test VI returns. Step.Result.UserOutput
