Selection of CAPL Test Module programmatically

Question

I want to know if we can control the selection/deselection of checkboxes of the CAPL Test Modules via CAPL Scripts, either by setting some system variable or by calling certain events. Is this possible?

Answer 1

It is actually possible:

Use Start to define when the test module is to be started:

• Immediately after start of measurement.

• When the defined environment variable switches to a value unequal to 0 during measurement. -When the defined system variable switches to a value unequal to 0 during measurement.

• When a defined key is pressed during measurement.

You can start the test modules manually in the execution dialog, in the test module's context menu or by using the arrow button on the test module block in the Simulation Setup. Test modules can be started several times during a measurement. You can therefore define (and use) several start conditions. During the runtime of a test module it is not possible to start it again.

Answer 2

Right-click on the test module and select configuration
Use Start to define when the test module is to be started:

• define system variable: starts the test module if value unequal to 0 during measurement.

use the system variable wherever you want for e.g. create a panel and assign it to a button or a switch (don't forget to configure the 'on' & 'off' value)

Answer 3

I think it is entirely impossible to change the selected tests during test execution. I suppose you could activate/deactivate test modules with the COM interface but certainly not during test execution.
