For now, let’s concentrate on the first worksheet, which is named “General”. It contains four
fields that may be filled with information. The following table shortly describes each of them.
Label Semantics
Module name Optional. Takes a name for the generated module.
Custom imports Optional. If include statements are necessary to access the function to
adapt, they must be specified here.
Custom init Optional. If additional statements are necessary to initialize the
function before a test run starts, it can be specified here.
Function call Takes the source code that calls the function under test. The code,
filled in here, will later on be called cyclically during a test run.
The following screenshot shows an example of the worksheet filled out:

The next two worksheets, “Inputs” and “Outputs” both have the same structure, that allows a
user to specify a functions interface variables – or in words of TPT: its interface channels.
