What is a good way to work, modify and get back / extend your ADE setup?

Hi,

a very typical scenario is this:

You start with maestro and get an Assembler setup e.g. with 2 tests and a certain corner setup.

Then you focus on special topics and create e.g. further testbench variants, e.g. for aging, SOA checks, etc. And you extend your corners UI.

However, at some point you are asked to go back and check the initial tests again e.g. with small modifications (like for further corners or other param settings).

So the most native method is to use "reload to active setup' and apply your little modifications, and run it.

Howerver, this way you will loose the tests created after this like for aging or SOA checks! And you will also loose  the corner and any output extensions!

How, can I get a superset, i.e. keep all tests but just have them disabled when you do the 'reload to active setup'?

In corner UI we have the nice dialog on whether you want to override existing corners or not. Something similar seems to be missing for 'reload to active setup'.

I believe setup states may help, but working from the history is much more intuitive and the history assistant has no create setup state function.

Bye Stephan
