Test sequences Free Pro

Every point, in order: guided test sequences with pass/fail

Define the points of a procedure once, then run it: each reading is captured with one tap or hands-free, checked against its limits at capture, and kept in a test file Pro. Reports follow from the test file.

iOS and Android, beta this winter.

Build the template once

A template holds the steps, groups, limits and the metadata you want to record on every run, such as a serial number Pro. Steps can be measurements, Pass/Fail/N/A checks, typed values or calculated values. One step can be measured across 2–500 identical channels, and a template holds up to 2,000 steps, counting channels. Building templates is part of Pro; Pro is an in-app upgrade, see Pricing. See Template builder.

Import a pin table

Paste a pin table or open a CSV, TSV, TXT or Excel file, map the columns and preview the first 20 steps. Up to 2,000 rows come in as one template Pro. See Pin-table import.

Pass or fail, at capture

Every step can carry limits: a range, a minimum, a maximum, a nominal with a tolerance, or an expected open circuit. The result badge appears the moment the reading is captured, with the reason on the step card Pro. See Pass/fail limits.

Run it point by point

A run steps through the points in order, with a rail of every position and a Capture & next button. After a short result dwell, 600 ms by default, it advances to the next pending point Pro. Capture can also fire by itself when the reading is steady. You can redo, skip, go back, type a value or add a note, photo or voice note. A run survives a crash or a dead battery. The test-run features are Pro, and you can try them on your first test runs; see Guided runs and Auto-capture.

Finish, then share

The summary shows PASS, FAIL or INCOMPLETE, counts per group, and the failed and not-done steps to go back to Pro. Start the next unit with the metadata carried over, or amend a finished test file as a new revision. Templates (.tnmt) and complete test files (.tnmr) are shared as files, and the apps open them for free. The nine starter templates are free. See Summary, next unit and amend, Starter templates and Share templates and test files.

From the test file to a report

A finished run is a test file you can open any time in the Records tab. CSV export is free; Excel and PDF reports are Pro. See Reports and export. Formulas can compute values inside a run; see Calculator. To try a template without a meter, see Meters.

In Test sequences

  • Template builder

    Steps, groups, multi-channel steps and frozen versions, saved once and reused on every run.

  • Pin-table import

    Paste or open a pin table, map the columns, preview 20 steps and import up to 2,000 rows as a template.

    More: Pin-table import

  • Pass/fail limits

    Range, min, max, tolerance and expected-open limits, with inclusive bounds, OL/UL rules and a stated reason.

  • Guided runs

    Capture and advance through the points, redo or skip, type values, annotate, and resume after a crash.

    More: Guided runs

  • Auto-capture

    Capture fires on a steady reading, needs a probe lift before the next one, and can follow the meter's HOLD.

    More: Auto-capture

  • Summary and amend

    A PASS, FAIL or INCOMPLETE summary, next unit with the serial advanced, and amended revisions that keep the history.

  • Starter templates

    Nine bundled templates for continuity, harnesses, batteries, boards, motors, outlets and solar panels.

  • Share templates and files

    Send a procedure as .tnmt or a complete test file as .tnmr; the apps import both for free.

Pro is an in-app upgrade. See what is Free and what is Pro.

Not yet, or not planned

  • No teams, shared libraries or reviewer sign-off; not planned for v1.
  • No automatic template creation from an arbitrary spreadsheet; use the pin-table import.
  • Template steps don't nest groups.
  • No voice commands ("next", "redo").
  • No watch or hardware-button remote capture.
  • A test file is your record, not a certification.
  • No real-time shared editing or comments.

Questions

Do I need Pro to try a test run?

No. Pro test-run features can be used on your first test runs, and abandoned runs don't count. Pro is an in-app upgrade; see Pricing.

Can a colleague run my template without Pro?

They can open a .tnmt file in the app for free, look through every step and start a run on their first test runs. Running beyond that, and creating or editing templates, needs Pro.

Is a test file a certificate?

No. A test file is your record, not a certification. It holds the readings, limits, results and notes you captured.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Templates, test runs and every export work without a network. You only need a connection to sign in, sync, use the web app or make a purchase.

Coming to iPhone and Android.
