There is nothing built into Labwindows/CVI directly  (or LabView which is another forum) to perform testing but there are plenty of third party options.  Look at this link for packages that support testing and reporting through test scripts http://www.aptest.com/resources.html

If you can modify your application to add internal test functions then you can also create your own test methods.  You would simply set the value of the control of interest and execute the control callback function.  This has the effect of appearing as if an operator had activated the GUI control.  This can allow you to semi automate the functions of the application.

If your application is an ActiveX server you also may have the option of creating scripts in some other application that will exercise the application you intend to test.

Hi Team,

Any update on this questiion? Bcz I am also looking for the solution for this question. I want to develop automation for Labview GUI.

Please provide your input ASAP.

If you are looking for a specific LabView solution, then I suggest you repost your question on the LabView board - this one is for LabWindows/CVI. If all you want is a generic Windows mouse/keyboard record/replay ability, there are many third party products available. Here, for example.
