    Does the step status also include "D" for done? Character (P, F, E, T, S, D) ?

    Is there a difference between step types like (NumericLimitTest, ET_NLT), (StringValueTest, ET_SVT) or (PassFailTest, ET_PFT) or are they two names for the same thing?

    Is there a list of all step types? the list doesn't include "AdditionalResults", "Statement" or "GenericStep"

    for string evaluation, is there a difference between EQ and CASESENSIT? aren't these the same?

    We want to stop using Done and instead use Passed, so no.


    stepType decides which icon the step will have in WATS, and isn't used for anything else. The values listed are the ones WATS recognizes. With other values WATS will guess which icon it should be. There is no difference between these icons: NumericLimitTest and ET_NLT, StringValueTest and ET_SVT, PassFailTest and ET_PFT.


    You can have NumericLimitTest stepType on a step with string value measurements, but the step will have the wrong icon. If the step does not have measurements, Action is probably a good choice.


    EQ and CASESENSIT are the same for string value measurements. Do note that the POST WJSF rest API does not compare your value against your limit to check you have the right status. Use the one that makes sense when you are reading the report later.

    Thanks. really appreciate the response.

    What does the ET in ET_NLT stand for? evaluation test?

    ET_NLT was what we named our custom version of the numeric limit test step in TestStand. ET is an abbreviation for the customer that we originally made the TestStand integration for, which eventually became the WATS Client TestStand add-on.

    So it essentially stands for nothing.
