Terminate Execution and Terminate All in the Operator Interface

[Clint Eastwood]

What is the difference between Terminate Execution and Terminate All in the Operator Interface???  When would I use each of them??

[asbo]

"Terminate" acts only on the execution you have selected in the tab bar, and "Terminate All" will act on all open executions. "Terminate All" is only necessary when you have concurrent executions.

So if I'm running Teststand ( OI) and I want to stop testing ( only using a single thread) then I would hit ???  Terminate ALL??

In this case what would terminate execution do??  Just stop, terminate, the current step in TS that I'm calling??

Thanks

Because threads are grouped within an Execution, which Terminate you use has no relation to the number of threads you're using.

Like I said before, use Terminate when you only want to stop a specific Execution and use Terminate All when you want to stop all the Executions that are running. Unless you're using a Batch or Parallel process model, you probably won't have more than one execution at once (unless, of course, if you execute more than one at once on purpose).
