Running a script
You can run a script in the Test Script Builder (TSB) software using any of the following methods:
• Run a script that is open in the script editor area
• Run scripts that are listed in the Navigator area that are not currently open in the script editor
window
• Run a collection of scripts by creating a run configuration (see Creating a run configuration (on
page 10-40))
When you use any of the run controls to run a script, the area that has focus in the workspace is
important. For example, if the Navigator area is active (the tab is shaded) when you click the Run
icon, the script file that is highlighted in the Navigator area is run instead of the active script in the
script editor area.
The following list describes the most commonly used controls to run scripts in TSB:
• Right-click in the script editor area and select Run Editor Contents to run the active script as it
currently appears in the script editor
• Right-click in the script editor area and select Run As > 1 TSP File to run the last saved version
of the active script in the script editor as a .tsp file
• Select an action from the Run menu at the top of the TSB software interface
Creating a run configuration
A run configuration allows you to download multiple script files to an instrument and execute them as
a single script.
To create a run configuration:
1. On the Run menu, select Run Configurations. The Run Configurations dialog box opens.
2. The left pane of the dialog box lists existing run and debug configurations. Select the script where
the Run Configuration will be saved.
3. Click the New launch configuration icon at the top left of the dialog box. By default, a new
configuration is created with the name New_configuration.
