Method for testing functions of remote console

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for testing functions of a remote console, which can perform an automatic test on the functions of the remote console of a tested server in a single-color test mode or an image test mode under the condition of no network environment and no client computer. The test method can avoid the manual operation intervening with the testing process, does not need the support of the network environment and the client computer, and improves the accuracy of testing the functions of the remote console of the tested server.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for testing the function of a remote console (Remote Console), in particular to a method for testing the function of the remote console which can avoid manual operation intervention in the test process and does not need network environment support. Background technique [0002] Nowadays, new servers (Server) all have the function of remote console (Remote Console), and this function looks from the surface, and the function of remote console is the same as the function realized by remote desktop under Windows operating system environment (namely: will The desktop image of the current computer is captured and transmitted to another computer through the network) similar, but its essence is completely different. The remote console function of the new server is not a function provided by the operating system (Operation System), but is realized by the hardware device of the new server; secondly, even if the new server does n...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0014] Yet there are many shortcoming or limitation in the test method of known technology, particularly:

[0015] 1. The traditional test method needs the support of the network environment

[0016] 2. The traditional test method requires at least two computers to perform the test, one computer under test and one local computer used to connect to the computer under test from the remote end

[0017] 3. The traditional test method needs to pass the license and correctly enter the user name and password when actually connecting to the computer under test and opening the remote console function

[0018] 4. The traditional test method requires manual intervention. The test results are completely obtained by manual observation, which cannot realize fully automated testing. Moreover, due to the unavoidable mistakes in manual operation and the lack of scientific judgment basis, the test accuracy is not high.

[0019] 5. When a problem is found in the test, the root cause of the problem cannot be accurately located, that is, it is impossible to distinguish whether it is a hardware device problem, a network environment problem or an operation problem

[0020] 6. The traditional test method takes a long time, at least about 5 minutes of test time
