Optimization of multiple tests in ADE-GXL

Hello

I am trying to do a global optimization on two test benches, one can be much faster than the second.

Is there any way to prevent the slow test from starting if the fast test is not in spec?

Thanks in advance

    I just checked, and this isn't really possible. The closest is the "Feasibility Analysis" run mode which is specifically to run OpRegion checks first before moving onto more complex tests. However, if  you had (say) a fast AC test and then a slower PSS or transient test, there's no way to tell it to try the fast test first and if that fails don't bother with the other. It's possible that conditional run mode might help, but I'm not sure it will really do what you want here.

    It's a good idea though...

    Regards,

    Andrew.
