Testing method of virtual equipment

Abstract

The invention discloses a testing method of virtual equipment. The invention only needs one computer to be tested, which can adopts different testing procedures to carry out establishment, identification and test aiming at different types of virtual equipment, thereby realizing the comprehensive automatic test of the functions of the virtual equipment. Thus, the problem of conflict in test and the interference of manual operation to the testing progress of the virtual equipment are avoided, the testing environment is simplified, the testing time is shortened, and the scientificalness and the accuracy of the test of the virtual equipment are enhanced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a testing method of a virtual device, in particular to a testing method of a virtual device which can avoid manual operation intervening in the testing process and test conflicts. Background technique [0002] Nowadays, new servers (Server) are all designed to be as small as possible, thinner, and occupy less space as possible. Therefore, devices such as CD drives or floppy disk drives are generally no longer configured on new servers. If this type of server wants to use a CD-ROM drive or a floppy disk drive, you can only use an external USB CD-ROM drive or USB floppy disk drive, but some servers may be designed with only two USB ports reserved for external USB mouse / keyboard, so If you want to use an external USB CD-ROM drive or USB floppy disk drive on this type of server, it is obviously very inconvenient, and the external USB device is relatively slow, and the data reading is not stable enough. Therefore, Virtual Device (Vi...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, there are many defects or limitations in this testing method of the prior art, especially:

[0005] 1. The traditional test method requires manual intervention testing, that is, the tester needs to operate two computers at the same time and manually judge the execution results of the two computers during the test process. The test process is complicated, the test steps are cumbersome, and the test results are completely dependent on manual observation. Acquisition, fully automated testing cannot be realized, and due to the unavoidable mistakes in manual operation and the lack of scientific judgment basis, the test accuracy is not high;

[0006] 2. The traditional test method requires at least two computers for testing, that is, a computer under test and a client computer remotely connected to the computer under test to provide a shared disk image file

And when multiple tested computers on the production line need to be tested at the same time, if only one client computer is used, the entire testing process can only be performed serially

If you want to test in parallel, you need multiple testers and multiple client computers, so the cost of testing is too high;

[0007] 3. Traditional testing methods take too long;

[0008] 4. Traditional testing methods cannot automatically distinguish virtual devices, and test conflicts will occur when parallel testing is performed with USB and storage devices

Moreover, the traditional test method will be limited by the number of remote network connections, and conflicts will also occur when multiple tested computers use the same network shared disk image file to create a virtual device for testing;

[0009] 5. The built-in USB controller (Controller) cannot be tested in the traditional test method, and the USB test item needs to be connected with a dedicated test tool to perform the test;

[0010] 6. Different virtual devices, such as floppy disks, removable disks, CD-ROMs / DVDs, etc., should be identified and tested using different testing procedures, and traditional testing methods do not provide specific information for different virtual devices.
