TestStand 4.2 does not have this feature; however, we do have an internal issue (#163169) to track this request. You can actually get the commandline passed to the TestStand Sequence Editor using the below psuedo code in a sequence; however, currently the TestStand Sequence Editor displays a prompt when it does not recognize a custom token on the command-line and there is no way to suppress this.
Locals.AppMgrRef = RunState.Engine.GetInternalOption(InternalOption_ApplicationManager);
Locals.CommandsRef = Locals.AppMgrRef.CommandLineArguments;
Locals.CountNum = Locals.CommandRef.Count;
For i=0 to Locals.CountNum - 1
Locals.CommandString = Locals.CommandRef.Item(i);
End
One suggestion is to use a batch file to write the commands to a dedicated text file and then launch the sequence editor. You can then use a sequence in the sequence editor to read from the file.
Lastly, I just tried something and I do not necessarily recommend this, but I noticed that the Sequence Editor does not prompt when using the /goto token, so if I use the below command-line, it seems that no prompt appears, the goto command does nothing, and the psuedo code accesses the command-line tokens:
"C:\PathToApp\SeqEdit.exe" /goto "location tokens that do nothing" /run MainSequence "C:\PathToSequenceFile\GetCommandLineArgs.seq"
Keep in mind that NI does not necessarily support this but it does seem to work for now.
