Abstract

The invention discloses a BMC automatic testing system. The BMC automatic testing system comprises a test object determination module, a hardware abstraction module, a script generation module, a file analysis module and a test execution module, wherein the test object determination module is used for determining to-be-tested BMC firmware; the hardware abstraction module is used for performing abstraction processing on hardware in a target server to obtain corresponding class files; the script generation module is used for generating corresponding test case scripts through the class files obtained by hardware abstraction module; the file analysis module is used for analyzing preset configured files to obtain basic data files required by the test case scripts; and the test execution module is applied to the target server for performing corresponding test on the to-be-tested BMC firmware through the test case scripts and the basic data files. By adoption of the BMC automatic testing system, the manpower cost in the BMC firmware testing is lowered while the test efficiency is improved. In addition, the invention also correspondingly discloses a BMC automatic testing method.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of BMC testing, in particular to a BMC automatic testing system and method. Background technique [0002] BMC (Baseboard Management Controller, Baseboard Management Controller) is the firmware used by the server to monitor internal physical variables. It is part of IPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Interface, Intelligent Platform Management Interface), and is often designed on the motherboard of a server or computer. superior. BMC sensors measure physical variables inside the server, such as temperature, humidity, power supply voltage, fan speed, operating system functions, etc. If a measured variable exceeds a specified value, the system administrator will be notified. [0003] Since the BMC plays an important role in the server, it is necessary for the enterprise to verify whether the BMC meets the design requirements. Server manufacturers generally develop different server platforms according to dif...
