TestStand?

And it now seems to be gone Shoulda saved that one...

The OP and James mentioned running a LabVIEW server app without an X server to host it. If you had a minimal platform without a GPU, you might be able to use Xvfb to host the GUI and run a linux based LV app on embedded modules like Intel Galileo.

Could a dummy X server be used? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xvfb

I guess I was stuck in 8.6 for so long that I never learned this. Thanks!

I'm rewriting a test for a family of products that include multiple 10/100/1000-T Ethernet interfaces (2 or 5) built into our system's main board. The existing test code uses CLI commands to query the operational state, speed and duplex state of the interfaces. It turns out that the various standard linux style commands don't really return the state of the interfaces; they always appear as UP and 1000 and full. No one performed negative test cases or combinational testing to see if the auto-negotiation was working. There is a second 'ping' test where the Ethernet ports are assigned IP addresses and a second NIC in the test station is connected to a hub that is in turn powered on and off to see if the ports pass traffic. A bit cludgy, but that seems to work. I found I can use a REST interface on the UUT to query the current state of the interface, but I need programmatically configurable source ports to 'wiggle' the inputs. I found this TP-LINK TL-SG3216 managed switch that includes a CLI that can be accessed via telnet, but I am a bit concerned about the long term reliability and repeatability of a consumer grade device being used as test equipment. I'll be testing a worst case of 50 UUTs a day, and would expect this to be in place for a few years. I'll have between 4 and 8 stations in various locations. Anyone have any experience with Ethernet interface testing that they would like to share?

You might try turning off Nagling. http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/quot-TCP-Write-quot-Timeout-error-56-seems-to-do-not-work/m-p/2123100#M689051 http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/7EFCA5D83B59DFDC86256D60007F5839

Every time I read "brown nodes" I think of this unicode character... Not that they are bad, they just shouldn't be there.

My new job has me starting from scratch DB wise. I worked with a homegrown schema for many years, but it doesn't match my needs here and I want to make this supportable log term (next poor soul), so I was thinking of using the out-of-box schema with MySQL. I've got MyQL 5.1 and TS 2010 installed; the TS 2010 MySQL implementation uses INSERT statements which lack my one pet peeve, a timestamp data type. I think this may be because MySQL at the time 2010 was developed only had a date-time data type. Does anyone know if a newer version of TestStand includes support for a timestamp data type with the MySQL template?

Is there any SSH love added to 2014? The Internet Toolkit went unsupported last year and it's been 4 years of waiting for native SSH. Something I can actually use would be far better than a new icon or bundling the Report Generation Toolkit ( that my boss just purchased two weeks ago and is now part of Pro; thanks sales rep; we'll have to remember that when SSP renewal comes around ).

The Robust CSV package from the Code Repository includes error handling and can handle strings containing commas and cr/lf http://lavag.org/files/file/239-robust-csv/ Finally, something that can manage crlf !

I couldn't change the original NI dialog back in 2011 (just my own copy). See this Idea Exchange discussion: http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/Calendar-control-that-does-not-block-the-GUI/idc-p/1419606

Well, I downloaded the twitter package, that loaded the oauth library. I created my twitter keys, then wrote a simple Open - Post tweet - Close example. @pbrooks100 WINNING! Creating keys: https://dev.twitter.com/discussions/2530 That's enough for one day, I might hurt myself...

Anyone have experience with automating salesforce.com login or data loading? I've been looking at some really cludgy PHP / Mozilla automation that fails with various timeouts, seemingly insignificant web page layout changes, Mozilla auto-update or phases of the moon . I did some simple stuff a year or two ago with Agile, but salesforce.com seems to use different authentication.

I tried to help someone on the dark side to send calendar VTODO emails to remind an operator to perform some action on a later date (preventative maintenance or calibration, something like that). http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Gmail-draft-or-delay-message/m-p/2118024/highlight/true#M688056

I've been writing shell scripts to self-test a product recently, and needed to use dropbear to transfer the results to a network location. The author of dropbear had this python implementation of PBKDF2 posted on his site. Maybe I should learn more about LabPython ( Aussies are a smart bunch! )
