Maintaining Multiple Test Configurations

If you are in the business to testing many different computers then you may benefit from maintaining different test configuration. By saving a particular configuration to a file, you can avoid resetting all the parameters each time BurnInTest is used with a different computer set-up.

A configuration file contains all the parameters available in the test duty cycles and test preferences windows. The saving and loading of configuration files can be done from the menu options, ‘Load Config’ and ‘Save Config As’. Configuration files can also be used from the command line.

Configuration files normally end in the extension ‘cfg. For example the current configuration is stored automatically in the file ‘newcurrentbit.cfg’

Using this feature it is possible to make your own configuration for each computer set-up that your business encounters / builds. eg. The heavy load situation, the Disk test only configuration.

After the configuration files have been created they can be transferred between computers where BurnInTest is installed

Compatibility issues

The configuration files are not compatible between the Windows version and the Linux version.
