JKI is excited to announce the JKI Labs release of VI Tester, a software test framework for LabVIEW that allows programmers to test their VIs (code) during the development process.
Software testing is a critical component of agile development and test driven development software engineering processes — it is also critical for validating software functionality. VI Tester is based on the industry standard xUnit software test architecture that is used in many other programming languages — this architecture is very flexible and powerful, but also very easy for beginners to learn.

This is interesting news
A nice looking tool. I’ve to test drive it.
Tomi: Thanks! We’re looking forward to your feedback.
It seems to be a very interesting tool.
Hope I’ll find time to use it…
In any case, you’ve done a great job, and it’s not the first time
Olivier: We hope you do find time to experiment with VI Tester. You might also find it interesting to know that we are working on a “Programmatic API” that will allow you to run tests programmatically in LabVIEW. For example, in VIPM’s Package Builder, you could create a Pre-Build Hook VI that tests your reuse library VIs, before building the VI Package. I’m really looking forward to this feature.
Jim: In our reuse process we have already some test vis, but it’s not very “user-friendly” and it’s difficult to maintain… VI Tester can be a way to normalize these tests…
