VeriStand Steps Configuration File Instructions - NIVeriStandAdd-Ons/VeriStand-steps-for-TestStand GitHub Wiki

Starting in version 8.1.0 the VeriStand Steps for TestStand support using an optional configuration file to override settings. In version 8.1.0 the only setting available for override is VeriStand's application installation directory.

The configuration file is an .ini file and must be named ni-veristand-steps-configuration.conf.

Both the Initialize VeriStand and Start VeriStand step types will search for the ni-veristand-steps-configuration.conf INI file when trying to launch VeriStand. If the veristand_application_path key is found under the [paths] section then this path will be used to launch VeriStand instead of the default installation path.

Example Configuration INI File

ni-veristand-steps-configuration.conf must be placed in the TestStand Public Documents directory next to ni-veristand-steps-runtime-lib.lvlibp.
