Need help doing tests with parameters

[WalterP]

Hey:

How do you specify the file in a serial test execution with parameters.

Can I write the data in from a spreadsheet?

Thanks

Thanks for asking WalterP.

You're talking about eValid's Data Synthesis feature, described here:

http://www.e-valid.com/Products/Documen ... .data.html

In this mode eValid reads lines from an input file that have value assignments to parameters.

It matches these up with the same parameters in the script file, does the string substitution, and runs the script.

One run per line in the file.

Your script file has to contain this command at the top (before the first parameter usage):

DataSynthesis "filename"

The file name itself can be just the local file name, in your project directory.

Or it can be a full Windows path name like this:

C:/TestArea/data-synthesis.txt

The actual file is a text-only file, but yes, of course you can create a text only file using a spreadsheet.
