Documenting Usage Instances of Sequence File Globals

[Alan_Bentz]

I'm new to TestStand 3.5, and I'm inheriting someone else's work.

Is there a way to find out in what sequences and steps each of the individual Sequence File Globals are being set and called?

Maybe someone's written a utility to do this?

Hi Alan,

You can use TestStand API methods to get File Globals in your Sequence File:

1. First, get the Sequence File Object containing the File Globals by using TestStand API method "Engine.GetSequenceFileEx";
2. Then, get the PropertyObject that contains the default values of the global variables for the Sequence File by calling "SequenceFile.FileGlobalsDefaultValues" property;
3. Finally, run "Engine.ReleaseSequenceFileEx" method to release the reference of object.

Hi Alan,
I always use Edit>>Find (or Ctrl+F) to search for the usage of properties.
However, I don't know a way to export the list for documentation purposes. Maybe a screenshot will do?
