"Improve your testing outcomes"
What do you like best about TestStand?

The ability to do tests has improved team efforts and this in return increased productivity. Its features are meant for tests in lay mans understanding but beyond this there is increased productivity, efficient team work, reduced wastage and trial and error declines. This reduces production costs

To be honest it is not the easiest app to operate if you are not in its field. Besides, the interface can take you time before you understand how it functions and still, implementation is only possible with a person that really understands it well. In short, it is not everbody piece of cake in terms of using. However, the perfectly inbuilt reporting and logging features ensures that you get the right results.

It has reduced our failure rate as well as errors have significantly decreased

When compared to other similar apps, TestStand is the right alternative and it favours large teams

The customer support is to the point, ensures that your issues are solved instantly

Has numerous strengths for software integration such as saving data generated from tests in either cloud-based or local database Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Complex and Frustrating Test Automation Tool"
What do you like best about TestStand?

The looping feature is useless. The software is finicky when running threads causing issues with closing the application. Error messages originating from LabVIEW interrupt the test sequence in TestStand requiring closure of windows. The pricing is costly for individuals or small and medium enterprises. It requires time to grasp and become familiar with the interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TestStand?

It is a useless tool for integrating capabilities with other tools and frameworks. Developing tests using TestStand is ineptness and hard. The software is not user friendly and difficult to learn. It also lacks in documentation and reliable support. It increases the testing time but reduce performance, within our testing process. The error handling capabilities are not robust enough to handle all of the potential errors that occur during testing. This led to test failures and lost data.

"Teststand is an overall great platform."
What do you like best about TestStand?

I appreciate the easy integration of LabVIEW in each step and how easy it is to configure. I also like how easy it is for a production operator to test using this software. It is also an easy platform to move around and edit items. The NI platform is a positive aspect about TestStand. NI has a lot of hardware that can pair with TestStand to allow many different configurations to test a variety of products. TestStand is also a useful tool when utilizing the same LabVIEW Vi for multiple steps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TestStand?

Defining the variables can get cumbersome, especially when transfering variables to different PCs and sequences. The looping feature is not as useful as I woul like to. I would like to see looping for averaging results. Sometimes the software can get finicky when it is running multiple threads and you cannot close the application. I also have had a few issues with error messages from LabVIEW do not allow the teststand sequence to continue. It requires the user to close the window out from LabVIEW in order to continue.
