TestStand™ Test Executive

The NI TestStand is an off-the-shelf test executive with the capabilities needed to rapidly develop, deploy, and manage automated test systems. It sequences tests written in multiple programming languages, optimizes instrument usage through parallel execution, provides operator interfaces and deployment tools for scalable test systems, and automatically generates reports while storing results in local or network databases. With TestStand, users can build, customize, and deploy test systems faster using drag and drop development, flexible code adapters, and Nigel AI Advisor.

TestStand increases test throughput by enabling parallel test execution, automatically scheduling shared hardware resources, and providing an execution profiler to optimize performance. It simplifies deployment and maintenance with customizable user interfaces, the TestStand Deployment Utility, and support for deployment patching. Additionally, NI reduces maintenance overhead by providing regular updates that add new features and ensure ongoing software compatibility. TestStand streamlines test result publishing with built in reporting capabilities and enterprise connectivity for centralized data access and analysis.

The LabVIEW+ Suite combines LabVIEW with additional purpose built software tools designed to automate measurement, analysis, and testing, saving users time with tightly integrated workflows. The software works together to save time.

The suite also includes NI Nigel AI, which provides contextual guidance, automation, and insights to eliminate time consuming development tasks and boost productivity. Unlike general-purpose AI tools, Nigel is built for test and measurement, equipped with extensive domain expertise and trusted data to deliver smarter, more relevant answers. Nigel has been trained in test system design, methodologies, and data analysis, giving users instant access to best practices, measurement setup guidance, and more. Nigel is integrated into TestStand, providing help on the spot based on what users are working on without the need to switch between software applications.
