			In [[LabVIEW 2024 Q1]], a third location was added: ''C:\Program Files\NI\LVAddons\viawin\1\project\_VI Analyzer\_tests''. Tests in this location will only be discovered in LabVIEW 2024 Q1 and later.

	[[File:VI Analyzer.png\|thumb\|VI Analyzer]]		'''VI Analyzer''' is a [[wikipedia:static code analysis\|static code analysis]] tool for [[LabVIEW]]. It is part of the LabVIEW installation and integrated in the [[tools]] menu with commands to [[Analyze VIs]] and show the [[VI Analyzer Results Window]]. To analyze VIs, tests are required, which can be obtained by installing the [[LabVIEW VI Analyzer Toolkit]] add-on and from the [https://forums.ni.com/t5/VI-Analyzer-Enthusiasts/ct-p/7021 VI Analyzer Enthusiasts Forum]. New tests can be created by copying existing tests and adjusting them manually, or by using the [[VI Analyzer Test Creator]] from the LabVIEW VI Analyzer Toolkit add-on.
	'''VI Analyzer''' is a [[wikipedia:static code analysis\|static code analysis]] tool.
			==Test discovery==
			User-specified tests are automatically discovered from the ''VI Analyzer Tests'' folder in the [[LabVIEW Data]] directory and appear under "<User-Specified>" when [[Analyze VIs#Select Tests\|selecting tests]]. Each [[LLB]] inside the folder represents a test. Subfolders can be used for further categorization.

			==Test configuration==
			Test configurations can be stored in a [[VI Analyzer Configuration File]], which includes information like the items to test, items to ignore, which tests to perform, and additional options. This configuration can later be restored to run the analysis.

			==Test results==
			The results of an analysis can be stored in a [[VI Analyzer Results File]], which can be viewed in the [[VI Analyzer Results Window]] and exported into different formats.
