12 The Report Template Editor<br />

12.1 Introduction<br />

Templates control the content and the layout of reports created by the report generator. In the<br />

current <strong>TPT</strong> version, the report generator has the ability to create such reports in HTML format.<br />

As well as a template file the report generator needs a set of test run results in the form of<br />

signal waveforms and variable allocations. The following chapters deal with the creation of a<br />

template using the template editor.<br />

Templates, in their internal representation, are XML files. In order to be able to generate a template you<br />

can either use the template editor or you can write the template “manually” if you are familiar with the<br />

XML structure.<br />

12.2 Creating a template by means of the template editor<br />

The template editor is a tool which you can use to build your own control templates<br />

interactively. Open the editor by selecting “template editor” in the “tools” menu or by the<br />

Ctrl+T hotkey. The template editor window is divided into two halves (see Figure 45). On the<br />

left-hand side the template structure is depicted as a tree, while the right-hand side of the<br />

window shows the properties of a template statement selected in the tree.
