Select File»Browse Workspace from a TestStand User Interface or call the Engine.DisplayWorkspaceBrowserDialog method to launch the Workspace Browser dialog box, in which you can load and unload workspaces, perform source code control (SCC) operations on the files in the workspace, and add and remove files from the workspace. Use the Workspace context menu to perform all file operations in the Workspace Browser dialog box.

The Workspace Browser dialog box displays the contents of a TestStand workspace ( .tsw ) file. A workspace file displays a list of any number of TestStand project ( .tsp ) files, which can contain any type of file or folder.

In the Workspace Browser dialog box, you can only open one workspace file at a time. If you have a workspace file open and you try to open or create another, TestStand prompts you to save the workspace file before opening or creating another file.

To open any file from within the Workspace Browser dialog box, double-click the file or select Open from the context menu. For example, if you double-click a sequence file in the Workspace Browser dialog box, TestStand opens the file in the user interface.

To organize the files, use the commands located in the context menu to cut, copy, paste, and delete any files in projects or any project files in the workspace.

The Workspace Browser dialog box contains the following options:

• Workspace Pathname —The path of the currently loaded workspace file. Use the Browse button to load a different workspace into TestStand.
• Workspace View —The files in the currently loaded workspace.
• Source Code Control Messages —The Source Code Control Messages generated while using the Workspace Browser dialog box.
