Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, due to the large number of test procedures used to test the motherboard, and some tests take a long time, operator intervention is also required during the test process to complete
Therefore, the traditional testing method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also needs to match the working hours of the operator, and it is impossible to carry out the test day and night without interruption.
At the same time, due to the large amount of time and manpower consumption caused by manual operation, traditional testing is usually only done under DOS, not for all possible operating systems on the market, otherwise it will cost too much to test product testing work

Embodiment Construction

[0021] figure 1 It is an automated motherboard testing system in an embodiment of the present invention. It includes a server 11 and multiple client computers 12 connected to the server 11 to be tested. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the server 11 works under the Windows NT operating system. The mainboard 121 to be tested is installed in the computer 12 to be tested, and each computer device to be tested has a floppy disk 122 , a hard disk 123 and a network card 124 . The server 11 stores all high-level operating systems (Microsoft Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows NT, Windows ME and Windows XP) that will be tested and the required tests for the compatibility and reliability test items of all motherboards. Program and batch files. Each test procedure of each test item is listed in Table 1.

[0022] In the above system, the process shown in FIG. 2 is executed between the server 11 and the client computer 12 to be tested.

[0023] Firstly, i...

Abstract

The method is utilized to test the main board to be tested installed in computers. The method includes following steps. (1) The test items for the main board to be tested are selected. (2) The high-level operation system is selected. The computer to be tested is connected to the server through network under a disk operation system control and the high-level operation system is also installed on the computer to be tested from the server. The testing programs needed for the selected test items are down loaded and installed on the computer to be tested from the server. (3) Under the control of the selected high-level operation system, the computer to be tested is on-line with the server to carry out the test programs, and the tested results are sent back to storage of the server.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a motherboard testing system and method, in particular to an automated motherboard testing system and method, which can save manpower and time and perform more flexible and complete testing. Background technique [0002] A motherboard is one of the main components in a personal computer. It provides south bridge, north bridge chipset, bus, peripheral device data transmission interface and so on to direct data transmission. Therefore, the reliability (reliability) of the motherboard and the compatibility (compatibility) with the operating system and other devices of the personal computer are important determinants of the quality of the motherboard product. [0003] The manufacturer of the motherboard must test the compatibility and reliability of the motherboard before the product leaves the factory. Generally, the motherboard is installed in a computer to be tested, and the computer to be tested executes a relevant test progr...
