Exporting a sequence diagram to a text file (.csv)
The UML/SD Viewer can generate sequence diagram results in a .csv text file. A .csv file is a text file presented as a table. You can import these results into a text editor, a spreadsheet application or use them to operate a file diff comparison for non-regression evaluation.
You can specify the format used to generate the .csv text file in the Data table preferences.
To generate a .csv text file from a sequence diagram:
- After running an application or test node with Runtime Tracing, open a sequence diagram.
- From the Runtime Trace menu, select Generate CSV.
- In the Generate CSV window, specify the name of the text file.
- Select Generate columns header to insert a line with column titles at the top of the file.
- In the Columns list, select the sequence diagram elements that you want to export to the text file. Use the Up and Down buttons to change the order.
- In the Additional Filters list, select any sequence diagram elements that you want to filter out of the report.
- Click Preview to see how the table will appear in a spreadsheet application. The CSV Preview window is limited to the first 100 lines. Click Close to exit the preview.
- Click OK.
