Overcoming 3 Manufacturing Test Challenges with TestStand
During this session, we will discuss the challenges of changing requirements, throughput, and software development and maintenance.
How Open-Source Workflows Improve LabVIEW Collaboration for Everyone
The LabVIEW ecosystem is home to a large number of open-source projects hosted by various community members. NI is now also open-sourcing select components of the LabVIEW platform to empower and activate key contributors among the LabVIEW community, and drive key improvements that will benefit any LabVIEW team and how they collaborate. For open-source projects to be successful, they require industry best practices for team communication, tracking changes, automating key workflows, dependency management and more. Watch Joerg Hampel of Hampel Software Engineering (HSE), a LabVIEW Champion and expert in team collaboration who has maintained open-source projects for a long time, and NI's Elijah Kerry and Sergio Velderrain, who lead the Community Program and NI’s plans to open-source more aspects of LabVIEW, share and integrate a contribution to one of HSE’s open-source projects live on stage!"
