[0040] Embodiment 1

[0041] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a method embodiment of an optional method for testing industrial equipment is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart of the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer executable instructions, and although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described can be executed in an order different from that shown here.

[0042] Figure 1 is a flow chart of an optional method for testing industrial equipment according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0043] Step S101, receiving a test instruction and first test data, wherein the test instruction is used to request testing of a device to be tested, and the type of the device to be tested includes: a device in an industrial Internet of Things scenario, and the first test data includes: data in a test case used to test the device to be tested.

[0044] The above-mentioned test instruction can be initiated by a test system of industrial equipment to request testing of equipment in an industrial Internet of Things scenario. The above-mentioned first test data may include: data in the test case used to be sent to the device to be tested for testing.

[0045] Step S102, in response to the test instruction, the first test data is sent to the device under test using the southbound protocol, and the data generated by the device under test based on the first test data is read using the northbound protocol to obtain the target test data, wherein the southbound protocol includes: the protocol used to send data to the device under test, and the northbound protocol includes: the protocol used to read data from the device under test.

[0046] The above-mentioned southbound protocol may include the protocol used to send data to the device under test, which may include but is not limited to: Modbus (a serial communication protocol) / OPCUA (an industrial communication protocol) / Profinet (industrial control automation communication protocol) / EthernetIP (an industrial application layer protocol), etc. The above-mentioned northbound protocol may include the protocol used to read data from the device under test, which may include but is not limited to: MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport) / HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) / OCPUA, etc.

[0047] In this embodiment, the test instruction and the first test data can be sent to the industrial controller, the industrial controller can respond to the test instruction, and the first test data can be transmitted to the device to be tested in the industrial Internet of Things scenario using the southbound protocol. After the device to be tested receives the test data sent by the industrial controller and generates data, the data generated by the device to be tested can be read using the northbound protocol, that is, the target test data is read, so as to determine the test result of the device to be tested.

[0048] Step S103, obtaining second test data, and comparing the second test data with the target test data to obtain a comparison result, wherein the second test data includes: a correct test result required to be obtained after the device to be tested is tested using the test case.

[0049] The second test data may include: the correct test result required to be obtained after the device to be tested is tested using the test case, that is, the correct data that the device to be tested should actually output when the device to be tested is tested using the first test case. In this embodiment, after the device to be tested outputs the target test data based on the first test data, the second test data and the target test data may be compared to determine the difference between the second test data and the target test data to obtain a comparison result.

[0050] Step S104: determining a test result of the device to be tested based on the comparison result.

[0051] In this embodiment, the test result of the device under test can be determined based on the comparison result. For example, the accuracy of the data output by the device under test can be verified based on the comparison result, i.e., the difference between the second test data and the target test data, to obtain the test result of the device under test.

[0052] Through the above steps, in this embodiment, the southbound protocol and the northbound protocol are used to test the devices in the industrial Internet of Things scenario, achieving the purpose of automated testing of industrial equipment, avoiding the low test efficiency of the related technology of manually searching for manuals to connect the equipment at the enterprise site, and then testing the industrial equipment, thereby achieving the technical effect of improving the test efficiency of industrial equipment. This solves the technical problem of poor test results in the related technology of connecting to industrial equipment by searching for manuals at the enterprise site and testing the industrial equipment.

[0053] Optionally, the first test data is sent to the device to be tested using a southbound protocol, including: performing data conversion on the first test data to obtain third test data, wherein the data type of the third test data includes: an analog signal for testing the device to be tested, or a digital signal for testing the device to be tested; inputting the third test data into an industrial controller, and receiving data output by the industrial controller to obtain fourth test data, wherein the industrial controller includes: a pre-written control program for controlling the device to be tested; and sending the fourth test data to the device to be tested using a southbound protocol.

[0054] In this embodiment, the first test data can be converted into an analog signal or a digital signal to obtain a third test data. The third test data can also be input into an industrial controller to execute the control logic pre-programmed in the industrial controller and output a signal (corresponding to the fourth test data) to control various industrial equipment (corresponding to the equipment to be tested).

[0055] For example, the control program can be used to simulate the control process in actual production. It receives the third test data, processes it according to a predetermined rule, and outputs a control instruction or data feedback, i.e., the fourth test data. For example, the control program may adjust the temperature setting of the device according to the received analog signal, or control the start and stop of the device according to the digital signal, thereby avoiding the situation in the related art where the test equipment is manually tested on site and the test efficiency is low.

[0056] Optionally, the data type of the fourth test data includes at least one of the following: a pulse signal, a sine wave curve and a random number, and after inputting the third test data into the industrial controller, the method further includes: adjusting the generation time of data of different data types in the fourth test data.

[0057] For example, the control program in this embodiment may include the following aspects: user-side data generation, protocol conversion assignment, pulse signal generation, sinusoidal wave curve generation, random number generation, industrial big data generation and simulation of industrial production scenarios.

[0058] User-side data generation: can be used to achieve orderly value-added of data in different data types; different data types can be used to adjust the time of data generation and the upper limit of data generation according to needs.

[0059] Protocol conversion assignment can be used to verify the accuracy of the data collected by the current PLC protocol. Two modes can be built in: 1. Fixed values ​​are used to verify the accuracy of collected data. 2. By changing the values ​​of different data types, the accuracy of the collected data after the conversion protocol is verified when it is within the data critical range.

[0060] Pulse signal generation: It can be used to generate pulse signals at different times to simulate pulse signals of different frequencies in industrial sites.

[0061] Sine wave curve generation: can be used to detect the integrity and accuracy of curve data collection.

[0062] Random number generation: You can set the interval range to generate random numbers in a disorderly manner to detect the real-time nature of the collected data on the IOT platform (including the device to be tested) and whether there will be any omissions in the data collection.

[0063] Industrial big data generation: It can be used to simulate various data types in industrial sites and generate a large amount of data within the range allowed by the data type. It is used to verify the stability of the IoT platform for big data collection and the accuracy of collection when a large amount of data appears for different data types.

[0064] In this embodiment, by precisely controlling the time of data generation, the communication delay between the IOT platform and the industrial controller, as well as the data processing capability within a specific time window, can also be evaluated, which is of great significance for optimizing real-time monitoring and control functions, and improving the response speed and reliability of the entire test equipment.

[0065] Optionally, based on the comparison results, the test results of the device to be tested are determined, including: generating test results based on the comparison results, wherein the test results are used to record whether the device to be tested meets expectations; after generating the test results based on the comparison results, it also includes: obtaining test process data of the test case for testing the device to be tested to obtain a test record; and generating a test report based on the test results, the test case and the test record.

[0066] In this embodiment, real-time data of the device to be tested under specific working conditions is collected and compared with predefined or expected data to obtain a comparison result, which can verify whether the collected data is accurate, stable, and meets the protocol standard. This comparison result directly determines the test result, that is, whether the performance of the device under given test conditions meets expectations. For example, if the pulse signal generated by the PLC is correctly collected and converted into a format supported by the protocol, the test result will be displayed as "meets expectations". On the contrary, if there is a missing or conversion error in the data, the test result is marked as "not in line with expectations". During the entire test process, each test step and the collected data can be recorded in detail, including but not limited to the type of data, generation time, transmission protocol, collection results, converted format, and any abnormal conditions. These detailed process data form the basis of the test record and can be used as an indispensable part of subsequent analysis and test report generation. The test record can not only record the behavior of the device to be tested under a specific test case, but also record other key information in the test environment, such as the communication status of the gateway, the performance indicators of the data receiving platform, etc., which is crucial for understanding and diagnosing problems that may be encountered during the test.

[0067] In this embodiment, in the process of generating a test report, all collected test results, test cases, and test records can be integrated to provide a comprehensive evaluation and analysis. The test report can record the results of the test case, including whether the device to be tested meets expectations, the performance of data acquisition and conversion, any test anomalies or failures, and possible causes. Through the test report, it is possible to clearly understand which functions of the device to be tested perform well and which need to be improved, thereby optimizing the performance of the IOT platform. In addition, the test report can also include a description of the test environment, an explanation of the test method, and a summary analysis of the test results, so that other relevant personnel can understand and reuse the test experience.

[0068] In this embodiment, a comprehensive test report is generated by collecting data, comparing data and recording detailed test records of the data generated by the tested equipment, which greatly improves the efficiency and reliability of the test and provides solid data support for the improvement and optimization of the industrial Internet of Things platform. At the same time, this process also reflects the platform's powerful ability to handle complex industrial scenarios, as well as its versatility and adaptability in multiple industries, fields and scenarios.

[0069] In this embodiment, the programs of each PLC controller can be written based on industrial controllers, control systems, intelligent instruments and sensors, the data flow between PLC and control system can be linked, and the test platform (or test system) of the enterprise industrial Internet of Things can be created to establish a digital and networked IOT test system. The IOT platform can collect real-time data from the test system to verify the stability and accuracy of the collected data for each industrial communication protocol supported by the platform. And accurately grasp the overall resource utilization of the platform under the big data processing link, find the causes of the influencing factors, improve the utilization rate of bottleneck resources, and enhance the ability to respond.

[0070] Embodiment 2

[0071] A second embodiment of the present invention provides an optional testing system for industrial equipment, where the testing system for industrial equipment is used to execute a testing method for industrial equipment.

[0072] The test system for industrial equipment provided in the second embodiment of the present invention includes: an industrial controller, which is used to receive a test instruction and a first test data, respond to the test instruction, and send the first test data to the device to be tested using a southbound protocol, wherein the test instruction is used to request testing of the device to be tested, and the type of the device to be tested includes: a device in an industrial Internet of Things scenario, the first test data includes: data used in a test case to test the device to be tested, and the southbound protocol includes: a protocol used to send data to the device to be tested; an Internet of Things platform, connected to the industrial controller, and used to read data generated by the device to be tested based on the first test data using a northbound protocol to obtain target test data, wherein the northbound protocol includes: a protocol used to read data from the device to be tested; a data receiving platform, connected to the industrial controller and the Internet of Things platform, and used to obtain second test data, and compare the second test data with the target test data to obtain a comparison result, and determine the test result of the device to be tested based on the comparison result, wherein the second test data includes: a correct test result of testing the device to be tested using the test case.

[0073] The above-mentioned industrial controller can receive test instructions and first test data, and the test instructions can be understood as a series of commands or operations, instructing the industrial controller to perform specific test processes, such as controlling equipment operation, adjusting parameters, triggering events, etc., to evaluate the performance and reaction of the equipment to be tested under different working conditions. The first test data can be the input data required for testing the equipment to be tested, and can cover various data types of simulated industrial production scenarios, such as temperature, pressure, flow, etc., to verify whether the equipment to be tested can respond and process correctly. In this embodiment, the industrial controller uses the southbound protocol to send these data to the equipment to be tested. The southbound protocol can refer to the protocol for communication between the industrial controller and the equipment to be tested (or IOT platform), which can usually include Modbus, EthernetIP, Profinet and other commonly used communication protocols in industrial sites. The southbound protocol can ensure that data can be accurately and stably transmitted between the controller and the equipment to be tested. By simulating different types of industrial equipment and scenarios, the industrial controller can detect the support of the equipment for various industrial protocols and the reliability of data interaction.

[0074] The IoT platform can be used as the upper-layer application of the entire test system, closely connected to the industrial controller, and is responsible for reading, analyzing, and displaying data. The northbound protocol can be used to read the data generated in response to the first test data, that is, the target test data, from the device to be tested. The northbound protocol is the protocol used when the device to be tested transmits data to the data receiving platform, such as HTTP, MQTT, and OPC UA. These protocols allow the device to communicate with the cloud or the data center within the enterprise to achieve remote data collection and monitoring. The IoT platform can integrate a variety of devices to be tested in the industry.

[0075] The data receiving platform can maintain a connection with both the industrial controller and the IoT platform. Its main responsibility is to receive the second test data, that is, the pre-defined correct test results for comparison, and the target test data generated by obtaining the data to be tested from the IoT platform. By comparing these two sets of data, the data receiving platform can obtain the comparison results and then determine whether the test results of the device to be tested meet expectations, that is, whether the performance of the device in the test scenario meets the standards.

[0076] The test system provided in this embodiment can be seamlessly integrated into the existing industrial Internet of Things architecture, not only providing a comprehensive testing environment for the equipment, but also providing technical support for remote monitoring and management, especially in equipment maintenance and fault diagnosis. In this way, even remote equipment can be tested and adjusted without interrupting actual production, greatly reducing the cost and risk of on-site testing, and improving the testing efficiency and management level of the industrial Internet of Things platform. Through the collaborative work of industrial controllers, Internet of Things platforms, and data receiving platforms, a closed and scalable test environment is constructed, which can not only accurately test a single device, but also evaluate the comprehensive performance of the entire industrial Internet of Things system, providing strong support for the maturity and application of industrial Internet of Things technology.

[0077] In this embodiment, in the present invention, in the test system of industrial equipment, the southbound protocol and the northbound protocol are used to test the equipment in the industrial Internet of Things scenario, achieving the purpose of automated testing of industrial equipment, avoiding the situation in which the related technology connects the equipment by manually searching for manuals at the enterprise site, and then tests the industrial equipment, and the test efficiency is low, thereby achieving the technical effect of improving the test efficiency of industrial equipment. This solves the technical problem in the related technology that the industrial equipment is connected to the industrial equipment by searching for manuals at the enterprise site, and the test effect is poor.

For example, the edge layer node may include: smart PLC, edge gateway (hardware gateway), industrial PC and server, etc., the test verification platform may include a hardware test PC and a display application terminal, etc., and the test system may include a data source subsystem, a data receiving platform subsystem, and auxiliary equipment.

[0084] Figure 4 is a structural diagram of an optional industrial equipment testing system according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 4 As shown, it includes: data source, edge node / IOT platform, auxiliary equipment and data receiving platform. The test management system can send test instructions to the data source, the edge node / IOT platform can interact with data through the southbound protocol, and interact with the data receiving platform through the northbound protocol. The data receiving platform can also receive test instructions and generate test results.

[0085] Optionally, the testing system for industrial equipment also includes: an auxiliary device, connected to the industrial controller, used to perform data conversion on the first test data to obtain third test data, and input the third test data into the industrial controller, wherein the data type of the third test data includes: an analog signal for testing the equipment to be tested, or a digital signal for testing the equipment to be tested.

[0086] In this embodiment, auxiliary equipment, such as a programmable logic controller (PLC), can be used to perform data conversion and signal processing to obtain third test data. The auxiliary equipment can be closely connected with the industrial controller to form a part of the test system to comprehensively evaluate the performance and compatibility of industrial equipment under different signal conditions.

[0087] During the test process, the first test data can be converted to adapt to the input format and requirements of the industrial controller. This data conversion may involve a change in data type, such as converting from an analog signal to a digital signal, or vice versa, and may also include formatting, encoding or decoding of data. Through this conversion, it can be ensured that the data can be correctly understood and processed by the industrial controller.

[0088] For example, PLCs are able to generate analog or digital signals that are used to actually test the responsiveness and functionality of industrial equipment or systems. Analog signals are usually simulations of continuously changing physical quantities (such as temperature and pressure), while digital signals are usually discrete, for example, used to represent switch states or other binary information. Generating these signals allows a comprehensive assessment of the performance and compatibility of industrial equipment under different signal conditions.

[0089] Connection between auxiliary equipment and industrial controllers: PLC establishes communication with industrial controllers through interfaces (such as RS-485, Ethernet, etc.) to ensure efficient and stable transmission of data. This connection mechanism allows PLC to directly control certain functions of industrial controllers or trigger responses of industrial equipment by sending specific data packets.

[0090] After data conversion, the third test data is input into the industrial controller. These data can be analog or digital signals, which are used to test the control logic, data processing capability and response speed of the equipment. For example, by sending a specific analog temperature signal, the temperature control response of the equipment is tested to be accurate; by sending a digital signal, the switch state control of the equipment is tested to be fast and reliable.

[0091] Figure 5 is a structural diagram of an optional test deployment of industrial equipment according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 5 As shown, there may be multiple layers between the data receiving platform and the auxiliary PLC (corresponding to the auxiliary equipment), for example, a presentation layer, a business layer, a service layer, a persistence layer and a data layer, wherein the presentation layer may be a visual interface of the test system, which may be responsible for management, control, information display and test report output; the business layer may be used to call the interfaces of the various functional modules of the presentation layer during the test process, and at the same time link the presentation layer and the service layer in terms of data; the service layer may be used as a data transfer station, and may use a message queue to transmit the control commands and data of the presentation layer to the auxiliary PLC and the data receiving platform respectively; the persistence layer may be used to store the data and test instructions generated during the test process; the data layer may include a database for storing test data and test instructions.

[0092] Optionally, the data receiving platform is also used to generate test results based on the comparison results, obtain data of the test process of the test case on the device to be tested, obtain test records, and generate a test report based on the test results, test cases and test records, wherein the test results are used to record whether the device to be tested meets expectations.

[0093] In this embodiment, after collecting the real-time data of the device to be tested under specific working conditions, the data receiving platform compares it with the predefined or expected data to obtain a comparison result, which can verify whether the collected data is accurate, stable, and meets the protocol standard. This comparison result directly determines the test result, that is, whether the performance of the device under given test conditions meets expectations. For example, if the pulse signal generated by the PLC is correctly collected and converted into a format supported by the protocol, the test result will be displayed as "meets expectations". On the contrary, if there is a missing or conversion error in the data, the test result is marked as "not in line with expectations". During the entire test process, each test step and the collected data can be recorded in detail, including but not limited to the type of data, generation time, transmission protocol, collection results, converted format, and any abnormal conditions. These detailed process data form the basis of the test record and can be an indispensable part of subsequent analysis and test report generation. The test record can not only record the behavior of the device to be tested under a specific test case, but also record other key information in the test environment, such as the communication status of the gateway, the performance indicators of the data receiving platform, etc., which is crucial for understanding and diagnosing problems that may be encountered during the test.

[0094] In this embodiment, in the process of generating a test report, all collected test results, test cases, and test records can be integrated to provide a comprehensive evaluation and analysis. The test report can record the results of the test case, including whether the device to be tested meets expectations, the performance of data acquisition and conversion, any test anomalies or failures, and possible causes. Through the test report, it is possible to clearly understand which functions of the device to be tested perform well and which need to be improved, thereby optimizing the performance of the IOT platform. In addition, the test report can also include a description of the test environment, an explanation of the test method, and a summary analysis of the test results, so that other relevant personnel can understand and reuse the test experience.
