How do parameter files work with the NI IBM RQM Adapter?

Hello,

 

I'm trying to figure out how parameter files work when executing a teststand sequence from IBM's RQM using the NI provided adapter.

 

So far, the only information I have been able to find regarding this is the brief section in the adapter's help file:

"Parameter files are files in the root resource folders that sequence files invoke. After you create a test script in IBM Rational Quality Manager, you can select a sequence file and parameter files for the sequence file. Before executing the sequence file, the Test Integration Adapter populates the list of parameter file paths into a TestStand variable named StationGlobals.NI_ParameterPaths.  To enable a sequence file to invoke non-sequence files in TestStand, you must create this variable in TestStand and specify the data type of this variable as an array of strings."

 

I have tried to follow this setup however the correct steps are not entirely clear.

I saw my father do some work on a car once as a kid and I asked him "How did you know how to do that?" He responded "I didn't, I had to figure it out."

Will,

 

Can you provide any more detail about what went wrong when you tried to follow the snippet in the help file?
