How can I report how much time each "line" in TS 3.5 takes? I am using TS 3.5 and LV 8.2.1

I am running TS 3.5 and LV 8.2.1.  I want to know how long each line is taking to run.  Is there a way to set up a global pre/post condition that would create time stamps?  I would then be able to perhaps grab some identifying property of the step and log this property and the delta-time to an output or file...etc.

 

I would be very grateful for any help or suggestions.

 

Many thanks!

The time information you're looking for should already be in the ResultList»TS»Sequence Call»ResultList»TS Variable. I've attached a screenshot of this. Let me know if this is the kind of information you are looking for.

Yes this helps.  I created a for loop at the end to save the information to a file.  I have ot figure out how to determine the number of steps (max for the [] array) and also determine how to collect any subsequence data.

 

It does give me a good starting point.

 

Many thanks!

Why aren't you using the built-in report generation? All of this information is processed there and you can modify what is there if you need to.

We have a standard report "owned" by others which does not report all steps.  This is for my personal debugging but thanks anwyways!
