The TestSeries editor consists of two areas:

Area

Description

Function blocks available

This list includes test cases and test series that are subnodes of the same Application node as the open test series. It also lists those test cases and test series that are located in the Tools tree. You cannot select a test series as a subnode of itself.

Cyclical references between test series are not allowed.

Selected POUs

The selected POUs are displayed. The POUs are the test cases.

A test series can select a POU directly only once.

Indirectly, POUs can be selected several times. It is thus permissible that test series may embed other test series, and that these embedded test series in turn contain the same test case.
