TestStand Diff/Merge Tool - API or Automation?

Hey all!

 

Has NI offered an API to their diff/merge tool or any other way to automate the process? I know this could be very difficult to automate if the goal is to take a few difference from each file and selectively changing both. In my case it will be very predictable. 

 

My goal is to compare two TestStand files that are very similar.  File A has been around for awhile and has had some manual changes, where as File B is a template that is updated occasionally.  Any time File B is updated, I'd like to push all of it's changes to File A, otherwise preserving everything in A.  In other words, I wouldn't ever automatically change File B, but push all changes from it to File A.  

 

This is a recurring task, so I'd love to be able to automate it.  

 

Any ideas how to accomplish this? 

 

Jared

Hi Jared,

 

I am only aware of the features described here: https://www.ni.com/docs/de-DE/bundle/teststand/page/tsref/infotopics/diffmerge.htm
