The invention enables automated revision comparison of engineering data within a process control system. In various embodiments, the invention achieves this by (i) receiving user input defining a set of data retrieval parameters that identify change-set data for an engineering data file, (ii) retrieving from among change-sets retrieved based on the data retrieval parameters, a first change-set and a second change-set, (iii) retrieving from an engineering database, first and second revisions of the engineering data file corresponding to the first change-set and the second change-set (iv) comparing the retrieved first and second revisions, and (v) displaying a deviation report that is generated based on the identified deviations between the first and second revisions.

Systems, methods and computer program products for automated revision comparison of engineering data in process control systems

An engineering tool for testing a process control system includes one or more test manager instances. Each test manager instance includes circuitry that receives test cases and associated test requests. The circuitry also identifies a target for each test request, translates each test request into instructions to the identified target, checks each test request for validity, initiates execution of each test case, monitors subscribed data generated by the target, computes a difference between the subscribed data at a first point in time and a second point in time, and generates a notification when the computed difference is greater than a predetermined threshold.
