Send Value / String

TS SendValue

With the LTT Send Value step type you are able to send one or more named values to the station display. We also call those LTT runtime values.

For send value to work correctly it is important to name the values consistently throughout the whole testplan.

Optionally, you can configure one or more of those values as additional history columns.

TS SendValue Hist

To do so, you need to edit the history configuration file and add a custom column for each runtime value you want to have as a history column.

It is important that the custom column name is exactly the same as the value name used in this step type.

In combination with history column configuration there are 3 different usage scenarios for LTT runtime values possible:

Scenario	Outcome
Without custom column entry	Values are displayed in station display only.
With custom column entry	Values are displayed in station display and history file.
With custom column entry (ShowInStationPanel="false")	Values are displayed in history file only.
