# What is NI VeriStand?

![ni veristand logo](https://www.genuen.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Wineman_Tech_Dec2015/ni_veristand_logo.jpg?width=527&height=80&name=ni_veristand_logo.jpg "ni veristand logo")

NI VeriStand is a software environment for creating real-time testing applications more efficiently. Genuen (formerly Wineman Technology) originally created this product in 2007 under the name of *EASE.* In 2009, Genuen sold the software to National Instruments, and the product was rebranded as NI VeriStand.

Since then, Genuen has continued to develop add-ons for NI VeriStand, enhancing this powerful and flexible test automation environment with easy-to-use tools for specific types of applications. These add-ons include:

**NI VeriStand Overview** (from the [National Instruments website](http://ni.com/veristand))

NI VeriStand is a ready-to-use tool that provides a configuration-based software environment to create real-time testing applications including hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) test systems.

All of the common functionality necessary for most real-time testing applications, including host interface communication, data logging, stimulus generation, and I/O configuration, is provided by NI VeriStand - ready to configure and use. When necessary, you can customize and extend the open environment with NI LabVIEW, C/C++, and other environments, ensuring NI VeriStand always meets application requirements.

- Create real-time test systems more efficiently using a configuration-based development environment
- Configure analog, digital, protocol, and FPGA-based I/O interfaces
- Import control algorithms and system models from LabVIEW and third-party modeling environments
- Build test system interfaces quickly using a run-time-editable user interface
- Add custom functionality using LabVIEW, NI TestStand, Iron Python, and other software environments
- Implement real-time test automation and multirate data-logging tasks
