[0039] Figure 2 is a structural schematic diagram of a test system of an Internet of Things gateway device provided by an embodiment of the present application. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0040] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0041] Referring to Figure 1 is a flowchart of a test method of an Internet of Things gateway device provided by an embodiment of the present application, comprising:

[0042] obtaining a communication test request and a state monitoring report of a gateway device to be tested;

[0043] generating a first test instruction for device data downlink test according to the communication test request;

[0044] transmitting the first test instruction to the gateway device to be tested through the Internet of Things platform to perform data downlink test operation on the gateway device to be tested, and obtaining a first test result for indicating the data downlink test of the gateway device to be tested;

[0045] generating a second test instruction for device data uplink test according to the communication test request;

[0046] performing data uplink test operation on the gateway device to be tested according to the second test instruction and the state monitoring report, and obtaining a second test result for indicating the data downlink test of the gateway device to be tested through the Internet of Things platform;

[0047] judging according to the first test instruction, the second test instruction, the first test result and the second test result to generate a test report of the gateway device to be tested.

[0048] Specifically, the state monitoring report includes operating data of the gateway device, such as temperature and flow data, and performance parameters of the gateway device. The gateway device data downlink test is a test from the test device to the gateway device to be tested to the Internet of Things platform, and tests the communication protocol conversion capability of the gateway device to be tested. When the test device receives a communication test request of the gateway device to be tested, the test device generates a first test instruction for the device data downlink test according to the communication test request. Then, according to the first test instruction and the Internet of Things platform, the test device performs a data downlink test operation on the gateway device to be tested, and obtains a first test result for indicating the gateway device data downlink test. Meanwhile, when the test device receives the communication request, the test device generates a second test instruction for the device data uplink test according to the communication test request. Then, according to the second test instruction and the state monitoring report, the test device performs a data uplink test operation on the gateway device to be tested, and obtains a second test result for indicating the gateway device data downlink test through the Internet of Things platform. The gateway device data downlink test indicates a test from the test device to the gateway device to be tested to the Internet of Things platform. Finally, according to the first test instruction, the second test instruction, the first test result, and the second test result, a test report of the gateway device to be tested is generated, and the bidirectional communication protocol conversion capability of the gateway device to be tested is tested.

[0049] Preferably, the data downlink test comprises:

[0050] The first test instruction is sent to the gateway device to be tested through the Internet of Things platform, so that the gateway device to be tested responds to the first test instruction, generates a first instruction response result, and transmits the first instruction response result to the test device.

[0051] The first instruction response result and the first test instruction are compared to determine whether the gateway device to be tested correctly responds to the first test instruction, and a first test result for indicating the gateway device data downlink test is obtained.

[0052] Specifically, the gateway device to be tested is configured to respond to the first test instruction to generate a first instruction response result.

[0053] The responding to the first test instruction to generate a first instruction response result comprises:

[0054] The first test instruction is parsed through a preset second communication protocol to obtain an instruction parsing result.

[0055] The instruction parsing result is encoded and converted through a preset first communication protocol to generate a first instruction response result.

[0056] In a preferred embodiment of the present application, the test device sends a first test instruction to the Internet of Things platform, and sends the first test instruction to the gateway device to be tested through the Internet of Things platform. After receiving the first test instruction, the gateway device to be tested parses the first test instruction according to the second communication protocol, extracts instruction type and instruction operation parameters, and then converts the instruction parsing result into a first instruction response result using the first communication protocol. Then, the gateway device to be tested transmits the first instruction response result to the test device. The test device receives the first instruction response result, compares the first instruction response result with the first test instruction, and if the first instruction response result is inconsistent with the instruction content corresponding to the first test instruction, it indicates that the gateway device to be tested fails to execute the first test instruction, and the gateway device to be tested does not correctly respond to the first test instruction. The first test result for indicating the data downlink test of the gateway device to be tested is that the data downlink test of the gateway device to be tested fails. At the same time, if the first instruction response result is inconsistent with the first test instruction, it also indicates that the gateway device to be tested does not correctly forward the first test instruction, and the first test result for indicating the data downlink test of the gateway device to be tested is that the data downlink test of the gateway device to be tested fails.

[0057] Preferably, the data uplink test comprises:

[0058] The state monitoring report is encoded through a preset first communication protocol to obtain a state monitoring data packet.

[0059] The second test instruction and the state monitoring data packet are sent to the gateway device to be tested, so that the gateway device to be tested responds to the state monitoring data packet according to the second test instruction and a preset second communication protocol, generates a second response result, and transmits the second response result to the test device through the Internet of Things platform.

[0060] The second response result, the second test instruction, and the state monitoring report are compared to determine whether the gateway device to be tested correctly responds to the second test instruction, and a second test result for indicating the data downlink test of the gateway device to be tested is obtained.

[0061] In a preferred embodiment of the present application, the test device encodes the state monitoring report into a state monitoring data packet through a preset first communication protocol, and then sends the second test instruction and the state monitoring data packet to the gateway device under test. The gateway device under test responds to the state monitoring data packet according to the second test instruction and a preset second communication protocol, generates a second response result, and transmits the second response result to the test device through the Internet of Things platform. After receiving the second response result of the gateway device under test, the Internet of Things platform sends the second response result to the test device. The test device receives the second response result sent by the Internet of Things platform, compares the second response result, the second test instruction, and the state monitoring report, judges whether the gateway device under test correctly responds to the second test instruction, and obtains a second test result for indicating the data downlink test of the gateway device under test. If the data in the second response result is inconsistent with the state monitoring report, it indicates that the reporting data of the gateway device under test is not executed according to the second test instruction, or the gateway device under test does not correctly forward the second test instruction of the test device, and a first test result for indicating the data downlink test of the gateway device under test is obtained. The data uplink test of the gateway device under test fails.

[0062] Preferably, the first communication protocol includes a traditional communication protocol; and the second communication protocol includes an Internet of Things communication protocol.

[0063] In a preferred embodiment of the present application, the traditional power communication protocol is IEC 104, and the Internet of Things communication protocol is MQTT.

[0064] Illustratively, the test device is a sub-device of the gateway device under test. By taking the test device as a sub-device, the network environment and data interaction in actual use can be more accurately simulated. This configuration makes the test result more realistic and valuable, because in actual deployment, sub-devices usually communicate with the outside world through a gateway. When the test device is a sub-device, there is no need to build a complex external test environment, because the sub-device can directly access the existing network architecture. This not only simplifies the test steps, but also reduces the probability of errors. By taking the test device as a sub-device, the data forwarding capability of the gateway can be effectively tested. This is particularly important for evaluating the performance of the gateway when handling a large amount of data, especially in high-concurrency scenarios. Gateway devices usually need to support multiple communication protocols to be compatible with different types of sub-devices. By including the test device in the list of sub-devices of the gateway, the compatibility and interoperability of these protocols can be tested and verified.

[0065] By implementing the embodiment, the to-be-tested gateway device is network-connected with the test device and the Internet of Things platform, the first test instruction and the second test instruction are generated, the standardization of the test environment is realized, the operation process is simplified, and manual intervention is reduced; the data uplink test and the data downlink test are realized through the test device, the to-be-tested gateway device and the Internet of Things platform, so that the bidirectional communication protocol conversion capability of the to-be-tested gateway device is tested, and it is ensured that the communication protocol conversion capability of the to-be-tested gateway device in different scenarios can be fully verified.

[0072] In response to the first test instruction, a first instruction response result is generated, including:

[0073] The first test instruction is parsed through a preset second communication protocol to obtain an instruction parsing result;

[0074] The instruction parsing result is encoded and converted through a preset first communication protocol to generate the first instruction response result.

[0075] Preferably, the test device comprises:

[0076] A connector module is configured to connect the test device to a network of the gateway device to be tested;

[0077] An Internet of Things platform interface module is configured to connect the test device to the Internet of Things platform;

[0078] A first communication protocol simulation module is configured to simulate a first communication protocol, so that after the state monitoring report is encoded through the preset first communication protocol, a state monitoring data packet is obtained.

[0079] Preferably, the first communication protocol comprises a traditional communication protocol; and the second communication protocol comprises an Internet of Things communication protocol.

[0080] Illustratively, the test device is a sub-device of the gateway device to be tested.

[0081] In a preferred embodiment of the present application, the test device comprises: a connector module for network connection of the test device and the gateway device to be tested, responsible for communication connection of the test device and the gateway device to be tested, and ensuring smooth transmission of data between the two; an Internet of Things platform interface module for connection of the test device and the Internet of Things platform, and registration of the gateway device to be tested and the test device as a child device of the gateway device to be tested; a first communication protocol simulation module for simulating a first communication protocol to enable the state monitoring report to be encoded by the preset first communication protocol to obtain state monitoring data packets, and to simulate a plurality of traditional power communication protocols (such as Modbus, IEC103, IEC104, etc.), to provide data to the gateway device to be tested, and the module also provides management services for displaying state information (such as state historical records of received or transmitted data) of the test device to the outside, responding to related commands (such as actively reporting data) and other services; and a test module for designing and implementing an automated test case set for testing the bidirectional communication protocol conversion capability of the gateway device to be tested.

[0082] Internet of Things platform -> gateway device to be tested -> test device direction:

[0083] The test module calls the Internet of Things platform service, and sends data instructions (such as data total call commands) for the first communication protocol simulation module to the gateway device to be tested from the Internet of Things platform; the test module accesses the management service of the first communication protocol simulation module, obtains the received data information, and verifies whether the gateway device to be tested correctly converts the Internet of Things communication protocol into a traditional power communication protocol and sends it to the first communication protocol simulation module; if the verification fails, an error analysis prompt is given. For example, the test module calls the Internet of Things platform service, sends data instructions DataCmdA to the gateway device to be tested for its sub-device (the first communication protocol simulation module of the test device), and records DataCmdA information; the test module calls the Internet of Things platform service, obtains the result ResultA of the gateway device to be tested executing the data instruction DataCmdA; if the smart gateway fails to execute the data instruction DataCmdA, the failure information is recorded, and the verification is ended; the test module accesses the management service of the first communication protocol simulation module, obtains the data instruction information received by the first communication protocol simulation module, and confirms whether the simulation module correctly receives the DataCmdA instruction; if the simulation module does not receive the DataCmdA instruction, the failure information is recorded, and the verification is ended; the response result ResultB of the first communication protocol simulation module to the DataCmdA instruction is obtained, ResultA and ResultB are compared, and it is confirmed whether the smart gateway correctly forwards.

For example, the test module constructs a monitoring data report TestReportA, calls the first communication protocol simulation module (such as an active data upload command), and commands it to send data to the gateway device under test; after receiving the command, the first communication protocol simulation module actively sends TestReportA encoded in the traditional power communication protocol (IEC 104) to the gateway device under test; the gateway device under test receives the data report, parses the data report, encodes the data report in the Internet of Things communication protocol (MQTT), and reports it to the Internet of Things platform as a data report of a sub-device (the first communication protocol simulation module of the test device); the test module calls the Internet of Things platform service to obtain the latest DeviceReportA reported by the gateway device under test sub-device (the first communication protocol simulation module), compares TestReportA and DeviceReportA, and confirms whether the gateway device under test correctly forwards.
