Method and system for automatic testing communication equipment

Abstract

The invention provides a method and a system for automatic testing communication equipment. The system comprises a testing tool, control equipment, a serial server and a plurality of tested equipment, wherein the plurality of tested equipment is sequentially connected in series; the control equipment is used for configuring the mapping relationship for the serial server in order to establish the mapping relationship between a virtual serial port and a real port, utilizing the mapping relationship to establish a serial channel between the control equipment and the tested equipment which are connected to a network by the serial server, and issuing configuration commands to the tested equipment through the serial channel; the testing tool is respectively connected with the tested equipment at the initial and end positions of the serial connection in order to issue testing commands to the tested equipment through the serial channel between the tested equipment, to receive testing results returned by the tested equipment, and to transmit the testing results to the control equipment. The system can automatically test a plurality of communication equipment and has the advantages of simple operation, high efficiency and low cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and system for automatically testing communication equipment. Background technique [0002] Automated testing is the process of simulating manual operation, completing the input to the system under test, and verifying the output through test tools or other means according to the test engineer's predetermined plan. It is an important part of the test work and can be completed. Many testing tasks that cannot be done manually or are difficult to achieve. The correct and reasonable implementation of automated testing can quickly and comprehensively test the product, thereby improving product quality, saving money, and shortening the product release cycle. Therefore, automated testing has been widely used in various equipment-level tests at present. [0003] However, there are following deficiencies in the prior art when automated testing of equipment is carried out: [0004] 1. Only use the two ports of the test tool to...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] 1. Only use the two ports of the test tool to test the device under test. At this time, if there are multiple same or similar devices under test, it is usually necessary to repeat the test process for a single device under test many times. Obviously Not only is the efficiency low, but it is also easy to increase the workload of testers and cause test fatigue;

[0005] 2. If testing a device under test needs to use multiple ports of the test tool, the demand for test tools for testing multiple devices under test will increase exponentially. At this time, the requirements for the test tool are obviously higher, which increases the test cost
