When reviewing test data, it’s useful to know the version of the sequence file used to perform the test. Out of the box, TestStand does not record this information in the reports or the test result database. It’s an easy option to add, once you find all the data.

The sequence file revision number is a hidden property of the sequence file. First go to Configure|Station Options… and click on the Preferences tab. Now make sure the Show Hidden Properties checkbox is checked.

Now in your sequence file, add a statement step with the name ‘Version Number’ and use the following for the expression: Step.Result.ReportText= RunState.SequenceFile.Data.Version

This will create a test step and put the sequence file version number as the result. This will show up in the reports and in the test result database.
