Problems solved by technology

[0006] 1. There is a one-to-one correspondence between scripts and network elements, especially the configuration part. This part of the script has no universality
[0007] 2. Any change in the command line of the network element, even if the case of the command line word changes, it is necessary to modify the configuration part of the script, which is difficult to maintain and requires a lot of work
[0008] 3. When a new type of network element needs to be tested, even if some functions of the new network element are the same as those of the old network element and this part of the function has been automated, it is still necessary to modify the configuration part of the existing automation script one by one before it can be used
Script porting is difficult and automation development is inefficient
[0009] 4. Due to the different normativeness of the R&D process, there may be slight changes in the command lines of different versions of the same network element, so that the configuration part in the automated test script has to correspond to the version one by one, resulting in the number of automated test scripts Surge and establish a strong relationship with the normative R&D process

Embodiment Construction

[0028] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0029] The purpose of the present invention is to address the shortcomings of the existing methods described above, and propose a multi-network element automatic testing method based on command encapsulation, so that it can realize the configuration of multi-network elements using a unified script. The core point of the present invention lies in command encapsulation, including: defining command primitives, defining command format templates, and designing command adaptation scripts. By encapsulating commands, it is possible to automate the configuration of multiple network elements using unified scripts, thereby improving the automation of test scripts. The purpose of universality, enhancing script maintainability, reducing the workload of script porting, and improving the efficiency of test automation script development.

Abstract

The invention discloses an automatic testing method with multi-network units. The automatic testing method comprises the following steps: A1. general commanding source language is defined according to the test content, a commanding format template is defined according to the type or the edition of the network unit, and a commanding adaptive script is designed, wherein the commanding source language is only included in the commanding adaptive script used for realizing the testing logic; the commanding parameter value required by the current test is obtained through; A2. the commanding adaptivescript is transferred, the replacement from the commanding source language to the specific configuration command is performed; A3, the network unit is logged in the long-distance way, the configuration command is transmitted, and whether the configuration command on the network unit is successfully executed is judged, and then the long-distance login is quit; and if the execution is successful, the test is performed according to the test content, therefore, the script is caused to have high versatility and easy maintenance, the working capacity of transplanting the automatic testing script isreduced, the efficiency of developing the script is enhanced; and the strong association relation between the quantity of the automatic testing script and the normative in the researching and developing process is eliminated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of communication equipment testing, in particular to a multi-network element automatic testing method. Background technique [0002] In the field of communication equipment testing, it is necessary to perform functional testing, performance testing, robustness and stability testing on the equipment (that is, network elements). Regardless of the type of test, it is necessary to build a test environment, configure network elements, and verify the validity of the test content; among them, a test environment can be built according to requirements, and the validity of the test content can be verified with the help of test instruments or peripheral equipment. [0003] The prior art generally adopts the following two ways of configuring network elements: a command line mode or a graphical user interface mode; among them, the graphical user interface mode is adopted, that is, a network management maintenance terminal. Becaus...
