## FunTEST File Structure

{% hint style="info" %}
FunTEST uses 3 types of files for test management

1. **Projects**
   * Projects purpose is to organize individual Test Files (Sequences) and assign Test Stations to Test files
2. **Test Stations**
   * Test Stations define the hardware interface i.e. plugins for equipment control and test points and I/O mapping
3. **Test Files**
   * Test Files is where the developed sequence is stored in a spreadsheet format

{% endhint %}

To access the file structure in FunTEST go to **Administrator > Project and test stations.** Here you can see the list of projects (right) and test stations (left)

### Creating Project

1. Click on New
2. Type Name of Project
3. Assign picture (optional)
4. Assign Test Station

### Creating Test Station

1. Click on New and enter Test Station Name

2. Select which plugins will be re-initialize before each execution<br>

3. In Devices tab select which devices will be used in the test station.<br>

   <figure><img src="/files/asRyz4W3QRbdupJujSIP" alt=""><figcaption><p>List of devices for a selected Test Station</p></figcaption></figure>

4. By double-clicking on the device write the alias and any commands you want to automatically send when the test file opens\
   **What is an alias?** Alias is the name you use to refer to this device from your test sequence. Choose a name that describes what the connected devices is such as DMM, DUT, PSU, etc....<br>

5. Finally in the IO and MX mapping you can assign aliases to specific digital inputs/outputs and test points.\
   Same as in previous steps the Pin alias is to be used in a test sequnce to reference a specific I/O or a test point.<br>

This makes your test sequence readable and user friendly
{% endhint %}

### Creating Test File

To create a project:

1. Select a Project and click on Test Files Tab
2. Click on Add -> New/Existing File&#x20;
3. Enter Test File name
4. Click Ok

The last step before you can go ahead and start creating a test sequence is to connect your test hardware. This is done using FunTEST Plugin Architecture.
