Hi Robert,
Ignoring any thinking about your actual questions <smile>...
This operation should test the specified component. ASDF does not (currently) provide a method for returning a value from the test-op (or any other operation),
This is no longer true; ADSF does return the operation so if there was also a way for test systems to annotate the operation, some things would become well.
