Compare Variables or Functions
The Compare tool shows differences of variable properties or function properties between the currently
opened test or template and other test definitions, test runs, analysis definitions, and analysis runs. You
can identify design differences and build on test definitions when you compare definitions and runs.
You can compare:
• Test definitions
• Test runs with analysis runs (In the TW application, an analysis run includes any changes made in the
Review tab.)
• Default templates with modified templates
• Specimen variables with other specimen variables
Merge or Add Changes
The Compare tool includes an Add Changes and Remove Changes buttons that copies functions or
variable properties (with the same name) from another test definition, analysis definition, or analysis runs
into the open test or analysis. You can also use Add Changes to add functions or variables from another
test or analysis to the open test or analysis.
