Executing different sets of tests with hiwave

[Stockalone]

Hi,

I am using CodeWarrior Development Studio for S12X Version 5.0

I would like to execute my program using hiwave with differents sets of tests (I mean different values for the program variables). Does anybody know how to do this?

Thanks by advance for your help

I assume that you are wanting to run some scripts that would execute different types of tests, perhaps for regression testing? Check out the Maker Utility section of the S12(X) Build Tools Utilities Manual. This is a PDF file located in the Help directory of the CodeWarrior installation.

It doesn't really help me... In fact, I want to make some "trace" file using hiwave.exe. It consists on extracting execution times in a text file using "SHOWCYCLES" command. And I want to do this for different values of variables to see if the execution time change.

Hello

You should be able to write a command file implementing the whole unit test.

I would recommend you to look at TN24, available from following URL

http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=CW-MICROCONTROLLERS&fpsp=1&tab=Docume...

Just download TENANTS and install it. I have attached TN24 to this thread for your reference.

The Technical note explains how to set up a command file performing unit tests for an application.

It does not explicitly show how to gather cycle counts information, but all HI-WAVE commands can be used in such a command file.

I hope this helps.
