Automated test tool and method for program controlled exchanger

Abstract

The invention discloses a test tool and a test method for program-controlled exchange equipment. Aiming at the problem of poor accuracy and low regression test quality caused by the regression test of program-controlled switching equipment, which is mainly carried out manually by testers; the invention includes a voice card call control platform, a test tool platform, and a voice card connected in parallel in a communication mode The voice card and communication network between the call control platform and the program-controlled switching equipment to be tested; the voice card call test platform provides commands and interfaces to realize off-hook, on-hook, dial-up, call, continuity test, dial tone test, etc. of the voice card Call test, the test tool platform combines the voice card call test platform to capture the interaction between the simulated user and the program-controlled switching device to be tested, record test scripts, edit test scripts and playback test scripts to achieve testing. The invention replaces testers, improves the accuracy of regression testing, and is suitable for various environments that need to test program-controlled switching equipment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the automatic testing technology in the switching field. In particular, it relates to an automated testing tool and method for program-controlled switching equipment. Background technique [0002] Program-controlled switching equipment is the core and hub station in modern telecommunication networks. After program-controlled switching equipment products enter the testing stage, there are two main types of tests, namely functional testing and performance testing. Functional testing is generally carried out by making calls manually, while performance testing is mainly based on special testing equipment (such as high-traffic call testers, etc.) to test various performance indicators of program-controlled switching equipment products, such as BHCA, connection rate, etc. , billing accuracy, etc. Experience shows that 80% of the faults in the test are found in the functional test. Therefore, the automation of the functional test c...

Problems solved by technology

The main reason is that there are two difficulties in the development of automated testing tools for program-controlled switching equipment, one is the configuration of complex software environment and data, the other is the test of manual dialing and listening, mainly because these two parts are complex and changeable, and it is difficult to realize Automation, restricting the degree of automation
