EPG menu resource recursive crawling testing method based on IPTV and OTT services

Abstract

The invention discloses an EPG (electronic program guide) menu resource recursion crawling test method based on IPTV (internet protocol television) and OTT (over the top) services, which mainly comprises the following steps of: performing authentication by simulating a set top box user, crawling all EPG resources by means of crawler and traversal after the authentication succeeds, and performing simulation test of HTTP (hyper text transport protocol) and HLS (HTTP Live Streaming) protocols on the crawled resources to obtain service quality. Meanwhile, the obtained information content is analyzed, including video resource names, resource brief introductions, resource set numbers and the like, and the conditions of resource missing sets, resource lacking sets, resource access abnormity and the like are analyzed. The method mainly comprises the following steps: simulating an EPG service authentication process, traversing and creeping EPG resource content, extracting data and calculating indexes.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electronic information, and relates to a recursive crawling method for EPG menu resources based on IPTV and OTT services. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of Internet TV users, customer experience (quality experience, service experience, content experience, etc.) has become an important factor to attract users. How to improve the good experience of end customers is particularly important and urgent. As an important element of Internet TV services and the only entrance for STB users to access video resources, EPG has the characteristics of large quantity, fast update, and difficult pre-release verification. The availability, reliability and security of its services are directly related to the user's experience and intelligence. Terminal adaptation. [0003] However, at present, the quality assurance of EPG services is still in the stage of manual testing, which is not timely, ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, the current quality assurance for EPG business is still in the stage of manual testing, which is not timely, comprehensive, and has a huge workload. Due to the huge amount of EPG page resources and high resource update frequency, and it is different from ordinary Internet web page crawling tests, obtaining EPG The interface needs to pass the platform authentication request first, and the analysis of EPG page abnormalities also requires a deep understanding of the EPG business. The calculation of abnormal events requires multiple complex calculations. When recording new data and comparing historical data at the same time, it also needs to be combined with testing tools. Resource quality is indispensable to the entire testing process, so building an EPG resource crawling test system is very important for Internet TV operation and maintenance, but it is also very difficult. At present, there is no perfect EPG integrity crawling test solution in the market
