Generating report vs model

[JTTest1997]

My test fixture is a 2 up but I can only unload it when both units have completed their test - 1 cover for 2 units.

I have a DLL that generate result xml file. That DLL is inserted into the sequentialmodel after the <Model Plugins - Post UUT> step. That is for 1 up test fixture.

For my 2 UUT test fixture, which model should I use and where should insert my DLL into that model to get result xml file for each UUT. After being tested the test has to go through my DLL to generate 1 xml file for each test.

I am using TestStand 2016

Hi JTTest1997, 

Thanks for posting on the forums! 

If you are making a custom XML file that you would like to use for report generation, you can specify that you  want to use that file as a style sheet in the Contents tab of the Report Options dialog box. More information on that can be found here: 

Customizing the Formatting and Appearance of TestStand XML and ATML Reports: https://www.ni.com/docs/en-US/bundle/teststand/page/xml-reports.html

As far as which process model to use and where the report generation is located in that process model, I would recommend taking a look at this document: 

Report Generation Explained: https://www.ni.com/en/support/documentation/supplemental/06/report-generation-explained.html

Hopefully this information can get you started on the right track! 

Thanks,
