Problems solved by technology

If testing under the operating system, it needs to start the system, which takes a long time and depends on the system, such as installing drivers and corresponding tools, etc., and the daily maintenance is difficult, which is not conducive to large-scale production testing in factories
In the case of many riser card tests, the machine frequently starts the operating system and restarts, resulting in a great waste of test time and manpower, and increases test costs

Abstract

The invention discloses a computer PCIE (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express) adapter card function testing method based on a UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) and belongs to the field of industrial large-scale testing of computer PCIE adapter cards. The method comprises the following detection steps: (1) checking a BIOS (Basic Input Output System) Setup starting sequence so that boot from build-in efi shell is taken as a first starting item; (2) starting a startup.nsh script by the UEFI and leading into a testing U disk; (3) collecting PIC information of the computer PCIE cards through a testing program; and (4) comparing the acquired PCI information with data in a PCI database, wherein when the PCI information and the data are the same, a test passes, otherwise, the test does not pass. The test of the method is carried out on a UEFI shell and an operating system does not need to be loaded, so that the testing time is shortened and the management is convenient.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a large-scale test of a computer PCIE adapter card factory, specifically a method for testing the function of a computer PCIE adapter card based on UEFI. Background technique [0002] In the current production of computer PCIE riser cards, functional tests are mostly required. In the current large-scale FCT function tests of computer PCIE adapter card factories, most of them are tested under operating systems such as DOS, Windows and Linux. If the test is done under DOS, the DOS environment needs to be a DOS boot disk with few drivers, and UEFI BIOS gradually does not support DOS. For example, the test under the operating system needs to start the system, which takes a long time and depends on the system, such as installing drivers and corresponding tools, and the daily maintenance is difficult, which is not conducive to large-scale production testing in factories. In the case of many riser card tests, the machine fre...
