InFusion test state You can think of the Global Rules and each sequence as a separate test routine or program operating within the scenario Each operates independently and in parallel with the others The purpose of each is to detect events and then respond with the appropriate action or set of actions In essence you can operate up to three test states simultaneously within InFusion Portion of a scenario that can define multiple InFusion test states More flexible than the Global Rules a sequence allows more powerful scenarios that include branching and looping between test states Global Rules can define only a single test state so there is no branching Behavior of the Global Rules or a sequence at any point in time In terms of InFusion testing behavior is waiting for a set of events and responding with a set of actions Sierra M6 1 SAS SATA Protocol Analyzer User Manual 243 LeCroy Corporation InFusion Scenarios Global Rules Global Rules are a portion of the scenario that can define only one test state To create the Global Rules you use the menu driven interface to enter an event or combined event and the corresponding action or set of actions the response of InFusion hardware to the event In the case of a combined event the action is taken upon occurrence of any of the events stated for the event combination It is a logical OR association meaning any of the events can trigger the action After you ent

122. SATA Protocol Analyzer User Manual 259 LeCroy Corporation Creating Global Rules Creating Global Rules This section gives examples for creating the Global Rules area of a scenario Recall that the Global Rules area defines a single test state The Global Rules do not have the capacity for multiple states so that area of a scenario cannot change state In terms of InFusion testing a state defines test behavior In this context behavior is waiting for an event and responding with an action or set of actions that happen simultaneously Keep in mind that a test state you implement with the Global Rules operates in parallel with the active test state of each sequence in the scenario In effect InFusion lets you do up to three line tests at the same time You can do one test with the Global Rules and a separate test with each sequence you create You can have up to two sequences in a scenario The following table summarizes the Global Rules examples that follow TABLE 4 4 Global Rules Examples Example Description 1 Creating a single event and action removes a primitive 2 Creating a single event and action replaces a primitive 3 Creating a combined event a logical OR association of multiple events and an action 4 Creating multiple triggers and actions 5 Creating multiple actions on a single event 6 Using timers 260 Sierra M6 1 SAS SATA Protocol Analyzer User Manual Example 1 Creating a Single Event
