About MPT Processes
When you create tests with the MPT application, you use MPT processes like
building blocks to define test actions such as sending command signals,
performing data acquisition, and responding to test events.
A complete MPT test normally consists of a number of MPT processes linked
together and saved as an MPT procedure.
