Adding Test Properties to a Project

Add test properties to your project to include supplemental information in your log files.

Introduced in FlexLogger 2018 R4

Note You can use test properties as placeholders when you configure your log file name and location. Refer to Using Test Metadata as Placeholders for Log File Names and Locations for more information.

1. Optional: In your Logging Specification, specify values for the Operator and DUT in the Test properties section.
   The fields for Operator and DUT are auto-populated, but can be changed or deleted. The logged-in user account name is the default value for Operator.
2. To add arbitrary test properties, click Add property.
   FlexLogger adds a new line to the table.
3. Enter the Property name and Property value. Use the following guidelines.
   • Property names must begin with a letter and cannot contain symbols. Duplicate property names will automatically be appended with sequential numbering.
   • Property values can begin with or contain any characters supported by your system encoding.
4. Select Prompt on start for any test properties that you wish to be reminded to update before the test begins.

You can view your test properties in the log files after FlexLogger creates the log files and adds the log files to the Data tab. When viewing the log file in the FlexLogger TDMS Viewer, the test properties are located under Custom Properties in the properties pane.
