Automatic test list generation
From XJTAG 3.6 there is now a range of new options for generating the XJRunner test list automatically, to speed up project set-up time. […]
An easier way to run SVF or STAPL files in XJTAG projects
There are new global functions in XJTAG 3.6 which are always available to use (like the built-in Connection Test). The functions RUNSTAPL and RUNSVF allow users to run programming files without having to write any further XJEase to enable this. […]
Arrays in XJEase
From XJTAG version 3.6.0, you can store multiple variables of the same type in an array structure. Arrays are supported for the types INT, STRING and FILE. […]
XJEase Call Stack
From XJTAG version 3.6, the XJEase debugger in XJDeveloper now comes with a Call Stack window providing more information about the XJEase code being executed. […]
Testing XJLink hardware
We understand that sometimes (for your own sanity if nothing else) you need to test that your test equipment is working. For this reason, it is possible to run a health-check on XJLink2 hardware (and XJLink2-based hardware) using the self-test feature available in the XJLink Manager. The self test can be run with or without a loopback connector but should never be run with the XJLink connected to test hardware. […]
Connection Test output viewer
From XJTAG version 3.5, users are now able to view all the test data from the automated Connection Test by clicking on a link at the end of the Connection Test results within XJDeveloper, XJRunner, or formatted log files in the XJTAG Log File Viewer. The full output viewer shows the test data for one run of Connection Test at a time, and there is a dropdown box to change between the available test modes. […]
Input parameters for test functions
Until now, XJRunner tests have been limited to functions which have no input arguments and a single return argument (which returns the result). XJTAG v3.5 relaxes that restriction, allowing input in XJRunner tests, though there is still a requirement to have a single return argument for the result. […]
Specifying bus access during XJRunner tests
Alongside other improvements to the XJRunner test setup, XJTAG v3.5 has a new interface to specify bus access from the test system using the XJRunner Setup screen. When you edit a test there is now a Bus Access tab on the dialog, which allows full control of which pins are used to read and/or write from a bus during the test. […]
Conditional testing in XJRunner
It has always been possible to construct tests in XJEase which were conditional on something else having happened, or a previous test having passed, but the new v3.5 release includes a number of major enhancements to the setup, running and control of tests in XJDeveloper and XJRunner, some of which make conditional testing much easier to setup, control and debug. […]
New XJEase Library format coming soon…
We are in the final stages of a major overhaul of the XJEase device file library and we expect to release it in the next few days. […]
