Explain to me how this is a matter of life and death? You are not going to die if no one helps you. And if you are then you should contact the authorities and not a LabVIEW forum on the internet. Please do not use sensationalist titles in the future to grab the attention of the users. Spammers use the same technique and they are handled by being banned. LabVIEW ships with several games. Search for Moon or Moonlanding in the example finder for one.

How I have used TestStand is more of a sequencer. We want to set the power supply, so that is a step in TestStand. We then want to measure the voltage with a DMM. That is another step. And we go along like that. It makes test developement really easy. For drivers and low level stuff, we use LabVIEW. So a lot of your LabVIEW code can still be used. You are just invoking them via TestStand instead of calling them in LabVIEW.

1. Is Test stand is completely new programming language than LabVIEW? TestStand is not a programming language. It is a test executive. It is more like Excel in that it implements expressions and conditional logic. TestStand is combined with a language like LabVIEW, CVI, HTBasic etc... to create a test solution. These languages are invoked as steps by use of an TestStand adapter. http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/370052H-01/tsref/infotopics/adapters/ It is also possible to use a script with an executable such as Perl, Python or TCL to perform tests. 2. How to convert Test stand program to LabVIEW and LabVIEW to test stand back? Since TestStand is not really a programming language, there is no direct/simple way to convert to/from LabVIEW.
