Log step name and pass status

[lvrat]

Currently I am using additional result to log step name in report (attach image).

How to create a custom step type so that the name of that custom step is logged to report along with status of pass? Maybe the custom step type can be similar to string value test?

I don't want the developer to add additional results.

Thanks!

Hi,

Refer this to create custom step type.

https://www.ni.com/en-in/support/documentation/supplemental/08/teststand-custom-step-type-developmen...

Do the following :

Go to step type edit CTL + T

Go to NI Types.ini and select string test

Copy and paste it there only.

Cut the copied string value test 2  ( maybe _ 2 or something like this) to mytypes.ini

Go to properties of this step type.

In the step name and description add what you want ex " My custom step name "  "My Custom step description"

Add it to your test sequence.It works similar to string test but with the name given in above step.

Run in single pass or test uut and you can see the step name in results.
