TestStand and GitHub Actions for CI

How can I run TestStand in a Github Flow?

 

I am trying to set up TestStand in a similar way as described in https://knowledge.ni.com/KnowledgeArticleDetails?id=kA03q000000x3IuCAI&l=en-US.

 

I have attempted to run it in two ways. First, using a Python file, but in this case, when my flow starts, the TestStand steps only wait and do not execute anything. When I manually stop the Github Service and run it, I can see the logger in the Github Actions screen, but the process does not finish. When the service is active, the logger shows nothing.

 

In the second case, I tried running it with the following command line: "C:\Program Files\National Instruments\TestStand 2020\UserInterfaces\Full-Featured\CVI\Source Code\x64\TestExec.exe" -operatorInterface -runEntryPoint "Single Pass" "C:\Testing\test.seq" -outputToStdIO -quit. GitHub indicates that it has finished, but I do not see any new files or changes that should have been made by my sequence.

 

The Powershell script works when running on Win10 as a standalone script but fails when running the same script from GitHub Actions.

 

Any ideas why?

 

Thanks"
