Hi Earl,

This sounds a little bit like what you're looking for, it's from http://www.teradyne.com/prods/cbt/products/soft-d2b/a3_ov.html:

"Teradyne GR Force/A3 is the industry leading test and inspection data preparation solution in the marketplace today.
Teradyne GR Force/A3 can translate over 30 of the most popular CAD design formats.
The software can also import Bill Of Material (BOM) information, automatically modify data according to user specified rules and part libraries, and automatically assign probe locations for in- circuit and flying probe testers. Teradyne GR Force/A3 is powerful, yet the intuitive environment provides fast program generation and optimization for all major test and inspection equipment vendors."

  Finally, I've been told there is a software database program available that
  analyzes an assembly BOM and derives test data on various parts on the BOM.
  Does anyone know what this package is and has anyone in this group used it?

  Earl
