Central Flow Control

We'd like to implement a whole test system in LabView.
To make the maintenance easy we've planned to implement the test
information (testnumber, minimal value, maximal value etc.) in a file,
which can be accessed by the test program.
Also the errors which are going to displayed in the case that an item
did not pass the test, should be in central accessible table.

Did anybody already implement a system like that or has hints what
solution provides which advantages or disadvantages.
We think that different implementations are possible but we do not yet
know the traps of the different solutions. (e.g. make the tables in
Excel, save them as Dbase files which can then be accessed by LabView,
or have a real database like Oracle to hold
all the Flow Control and
Error information.)

All hints and Information are very much appreciated.

My recomendation would be to use TestStand. My life got a whole lot easier when I moved from a custom test executive. I can now concentrate on writing actual test code. TestStand handles all datalogging, pass/fail decision making, limit loading, etc.
