[0009] In some implementations, the step of performing a menu item backtracking operation starting from the target menu item based on the menu item identifier information and the menu configuration file to determine the positioning operation sequence for locating the target menu item from the menu system includes: Determine whether the current menu item is the root menu item based on the menu configuration file; If it is determined that the current menu item is not the root menu item, the parent menu item of the current menu item is determined based on the menu item identification information of the current menu item and the menu configuration file, and the operation sequence from the parent menu item to the current menu item is determined. Update the parent menu item to the new current menu item; The above operations are repeated until the current menu item is the root menu item. Then, the operation sequence obtained during the repeated execution of the above operations is used to determine the positioning operation sequence for locating the target menu item from the menu system.

[0010] In some implementations, determining the operation sequence from the parent menu item to the current menu item includes: If the parent menu item is a composite menu type, determine the operation sequence from the parent menu item to the current menu item based on the configured operation sequence of the parent menu item; In the case where the parent menu item is a composite menu type, the configuration operation sequence of the parent menu item represents the operation sequence for locating extended menu items and hidden menu items through the parent menu item.

[0011] In some implementations, the menu item type of any menu item recorded in the menu configuration file includes any one of the following: menu type, value type, vlist type, vlist_menu type, vsetting type, vsetting_menu type, label type, and command type. The menu type refers to a composite menu type that contains a list of sub-menu items; The value type represents a menu item type with a fixed value; The vlist type represents a menu item type with multiple selectable values; The vlist_menu type represents a composite menu type that jumps to a new menu when its optional value is selected; The vsetting type indicates the type of menu item whose value can be set; The vsetting_menu type represents a composite menu type that generates new menu items when its value is set to a specific value; The label type represents the label-type menu item type; The command type indicates the menu item type for executing the command.

[0024] Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an electronic device provided in an embodiment of this application. Detailed Implementation

[0025] A menu system is a system in a hardware device used to set or operate hardware parameters or software programs. For example, menu items can be accessed or viewed, or menu items can be set or adjusted through the menu system. By setting or adjusting the menu items, specific hardware or software functions can be set or adjusted.

[0026] During the development of a menu system, it is necessary to test the menu system to verify that it can achieve the correct control functions.

[0027] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a test system architecture for a menu system is shown. In this test system, the menu system to be tested runs on the test equipment. An automated test platform communicates with the test equipment and runs test programs on the automated test platform to perform tests on the menu system in the test equipment. For example, the automated test platform sends control commands to the test equipment, thereby causing the test equipment to perform test operations on the menu system.

[0028] During the testing of the menu system, it is necessary to configure certain menu items to specific values. According to existing testing methods, the configuration of menu items requires manual operation. For example, a person manually operates the keyboard or mouse on an automated testing platform to locate the menu item to be configured in the menu system, and then configures that menu item. The automated testing platform then sends control commands to the testing equipment according to the manual operation, setting the value of that menu item to the specific value.

[0029] The above-mentioned menu item configuration method is extremely inefficient and requires a lot of manpower and time.

[0030] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application provides a menu item configuration method that enables automatic location and configuration of menu items in a menu system, thereby improving the configuration efficiency of menu items.

[0031] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0032] The menu item configuration method provided in this application embodiment can be applied to, for example... Figure 1 The test system for the menu system shown can be specifically executed by the automated test platform within the test system. The automated test platform executes the menu item configuration method provided in the embodiments of this application to achieve automated configuration of menu items in the menu system running on the test equipment.

[0033] In the embodiments of this application, the specific processing procedure of the menu item configuration method provided in this application will be described using the configuration of menu items in a firmware menu system as an example. However, the method provided in this application is not only applicable to configuring menu items in a firmware menu system, but is applicable to configuring menu items in any menu system. When this method is applied to configuring menu items in other menu systems, the specific processing procedure can be found in the description of the embodiments of this application.

[0034] See Figure 2 As shown, the menu item configuration method provided in this application includes: S101. Obtain the menu item configuration information input by the user.

[0035] In this embodiment, users can input menu item configuration information through the user interface of the test system running on the automated test platform.

[0036] The menu item configuration information mentioned above includes the menu item identifier information of the target menu item that needs to be configured with a specific configuration value, as well as the configuration value of the target menu item.

[0037] The menu item identification information mentioned above refers to the information used to uniquely identify the target menu item. In this embodiment, the menu item identification information specifically includes the menu item name, the parent menu item name, and auxiliary identifiers.

[0038] Among them, the menu item name represents the name of the menu item; the parent menu item name represents the name of the parent menu item to which the menu item belongs; the auxiliary identifier is an identifier used to distinguish menu items under the same parent menu item, which is generally represented by the order in which the menu items appear under their parent menu items.

[0039] The configuration values ​​for the target menu items mentioned above refer to the specific values ​​that need to be configured for the target menu items, that is, the values ​​that need to be configured for the target menu items.

[0040] S102. Based on the menu item identification information and the menu configuration file, perform a menu item backtracking operation starting from the target menu item to determine the positioning operation sequence for locating the target menu item from the menu system.

[0041] The menu configuration file mentioned above refers to a file used to record the configuration information of all menu items in the menu system. This file can be of any format, such as a table.

[0042] The menu configuration file mentioned above records the configuration information of each menu item in the menu system, including the menu item name, menu item definition, parent menu item name, parent menu item definition, auxiliary identifier, menu item type, and configuration operation sequence.

[0043] Among them, the menu item name refers to the name of the menu item in the menu system; the menu item definition refers to the explanation of the menu item, such as the explanatory information displayed in the blank area next to the menu item when the cursor moves to it; the parent menu item name refers to the name of the parent menu item to which the menu item belongs; the parent menu item definition refers to the explanation of the parent menu item, such as the explanatory information displayed in the blank area next to the parent menu item when the cursor moves to it; the auxiliary identifier is an identifier used to distinguish menu items under the same parent menu item, generally indicated by the order in which the menu items appear under their parent menu items; the menu item type indicates the specific type of the menu item; the menu item configuration operation sequence refers to the operation sequence when configuring the value of the menu item to a specific value. When a menu item can be configured to multiple different values, the configuration operation sequence corresponding to different values ​​is different.

[0044] The menu configuration file mentioned above can be stored in the test system beforehand, or it can be entered along with the menu item configuration information when the user enters it.

[0045] In some embodiments, when the menu system is a firmware menu system, eight different firmware menu item types are set, namely: menu type, value type, vlist type, vlist_menu type, vsetting type, vsetting_menu type, label type, and command type.

[0046] In addition, a sequence of configuration operations for configuring the values ​​of menu items can be represented by a type value.

[0047] The "menu" type refers to a composite menu type with a list of sub-menu items; that is, sub-menu items exist under each menu item of the "menu" type. The type value of the "menu" type menu item describes the names and types of all sub-menu items in sequence. For example, a value of a "menu" type menu item can be in the form of "sub-menu item name-type". Moving the cursor allows selection of any sub-menu item under the "menu" type menu item.

[0048] The value type represents a menu item type with a fixed value. That is, the value of a menu item of type value is fixed and cannot be configured arbitrarily. Therefore, the type value of a menu item of type value is empty.

[0049] The `vlist` type represents a menu item type with multiple selectable values. That is, the menu item of this `vlist` type has multiple selectable values, and also a default value for the user to choose from. The type value of the menu item of this `vlist` type can be filled with all the selectable options, their order, and the default option. It can be represented in the form of "Selection 1: Cursor movement direction from the default option to selection 1: number of moves - Selection 2: Cursor movement direction from the default option to selection 2: number of moves - Selection 3: Cursor movement direction from the default option to selection 3: number of moves ... - Default option: direction optional: 0 - ... - Selection n: Cursor movement direction from the default option to selection n: number of moves".

[0050] The `vlist_menu` type represents a composite menu type that navigates to a new menu when one of its optional values ​​is selected. Specifically, a `vlist_menu` type menu item represents a `vlist` composite menu type. The options for this `vlist_menu` type menu item are new menu items; that is, when one of the optional values ​​of this `vlist_menu` type menu item is selected, a new menu will dynamically expand, allowing the user to enter and select items from that new menu. The type value of this `vlist_menu` type menu item can be set with reference to the type values ​​of the `vlist` type menu items described above.

[0051] The `vsetting` type indicates the type of menu item whose value can be set. That is, menu items of type `vsetting` have a default value, but can also be set to other values. The type value of the `vsetting` menu item is the method for setting its value; multiple values ​​can be entered in several steps, with `enter` indicating the next input.

[0052] For example, the type value of the vsetting type menu item can be set to: v1-enter# means you only need to enter a value v1 and then press Enter to complete the setting.

[0053] Alternatively, `v1-enter-r:1-enter-v2-enter-r:1-enter-v3-enter#` indicates that three values, v1, v2, and v3, need to be entered in steps. The action sequence is: first enter v1, then press Enter, then move the cursor to the right once, then press Enter again, then enter v2, then press Enter again, then move the cursor to the right once more, then press Enter again, then enter v3, and finally press Enter to finish.

[0054] Alternatively, v1-enter-v1-enter # means to first enter v1 and then press Enter, then enter v1 again and press Enter again. This is generally used when setting a password.

[0055] The `vsetting_menu` type represents a composite menu type that generates a new menu when its value is set to a specific value. Specifically, when a menu item of type `vsetting_menu` is set to a specific value, a new submenu is generated, and the user can then select from the submenu's items. The type value of this `vsetting_menu` type menu item can be set with reference to the type values ​​of the `vsetting` type menu items described above. Furthermore, when a new submenu is generated by setting the value of this `vsetting_menu` type menu item to a specific value, the type value of the new submenu is set according to the type value of the `menu` type menu item.

[0056] The label type represents the type of menu item. This label type menu item only serves as an identifier. If the menu item that the cursor can select is an empty identifier, then the menu item name should be null. The type value of this label type menu item does not need to be set.

[0057] The command type represents the menu item type for executing commands. That is, a menu item of the command type represents an executed command. It cannot be configured and does not need to have a type value set.

[0058] The eight menu item types mentioned above basically cover all menu item types in the firmware menu system. Therefore, for any menu item in the firmware menu system, its menu item type and configuration operation sequence (type value) can be determined based on its function or operation method. Then, by combining the menu item name, menu item definition, parent menu item name, parent menu item definition, and auxiliary identifier, the configuration information of that menu item can be obtained. By obtaining the configuration information of each menu item in the firmware menu system using the above method, the corresponding menu configuration file for that firmware menu system can be constructed.

[0059] In this embodiment, the menu item positioning operation sequence and configuration operation sequence can be represented by menu operation primitives in the menu configuration file.

[0060] For example, suppose a menu item of type vlist recorded in the menu configuration file has a type value of GEN1:u:4-GEN2:u:3-GEN3:u:2-GEN4:u:1-GEN5:u:0; this indicates that the menu item is a drop-down menu with five options: GEN1, GEN2, GEN3, GEN4, and GEN5. GEN5 is the default option, so the cursor can move in any direction, and the cursor moves up 0 times. GEN1 is the first option; to select this option, the cursor needs to move up 4 times; the other options follow the same pattern.

[0061] Table 1 shows the explanations of various menu operation primitives and their corresponding simulated manual operation identifiers.

[0062] Table 1 In another embodiment, the configuration operation sequence described by the menu operation primitives described above can be converted into the form of simulated manual operation identifiers, thereby constituting a simulated manual configuration operation sequence. Assuming that a menu item of type vlist recorded in the menu configuration file has a type value of GEN1:u:4-GEN2:u:3-GEN3:u:2-GEN4:u:1-GEN5:u:0, and if the user wants to set the value of this menu item to GEN3, then according to the simulated manual identifiers corresponding to the menu operation primitives in Table 1, the simulated manual configuration operation sequence corresponding to "set the value of this menu item to GEN3" is esc_u_2-control_m. The above-mentioned simulated manual configuration operation sequence can be easily converted into the form of ANSI escape sequence codes, thus making it easier for the test device to execute.

[0063] It is understandable that in the menu configuration file mentioned above, the parent-child relationship between each menu item can be determined through the configuration information of each menu item, and the operation sequence of locating from one menu item to another can be determined through the configuration operation sequence of the menu items of the composite menu type. That is, the menu configuration file mentioned above provides a data foundation for determining the position and logical relationship between different menu items.

[0064] Based on this, in the embodiments of this application, when obtaining the menu item identification information of the target menu item input by the user, the menu item backtracking operation is performed starting from the target menu item according to the menu item identification information and the menu configuration file mentioned above, thereby determining the positioning operation sequence for locating the target menu item from the menu system.

[0065] The aforementioned menu item backtracking operation starting from the target menu item refers to starting from the target menu item, sequentially searching for the parent menu items of the current menu item, and recording the operation sequence from the found parent menu item to the current menu item in real time during the search process, until the root menu item is reached. Then, the positioning operation sequence from the root menu item to the target menu item is determined based on the operation sequence determined during the backtracking process.

[0066] The above-mentioned positioning operation sequence is the sequence of operations required to reach the target menu item from the root menu item of the menu system.

[0067] In another embodiment, a specific processing procedure is disclosed for performing a menu item backtracking operation starting from the target menu item based on the menu item identification information and the menu configuration file, in order to determine the positioning operation sequence for locating the target menu item from the menu system, including: A1. Determine whether the current menu item is the root menu item based on the menu configuration file.

[0068] During the first judgment, the current menu item is the target menu item; otherwise, the current menu item is the current menu item determined by step A3.

[0069] For the current menu item, it can be determined whether the current menu item is the root menu item by using the configuration information of the current menu item stored in the menu configuration file.

[0070] For example, if the current menu item has no parent menu item, it can be determined that the current menu item is the root menu item; otherwise, if the current menu item has a parent menu item, it can be determined that the current menu item is not the root menu item.

[0071] A2. If it is determined that the current menu item is not the root menu item, the parent menu item of the current menu item is determined based on the menu item identification information of the current menu item and the menu configuration file, and the operation sequence from the parent menu item to the current menu item is determined.

[0072] Specifically, if the current menu item is not the root menu item, the current menu item is determined from the menu configuration file based on its menu item identification information (including at least the menu item name, parent menu item name, and auxiliary identifier). The parent menu item is then determined based on the configuration information of the current menu item. Finally, the operation sequence from the parent menu item to the current menu item is determined based on the type and type value of the parent menu item.

[0073] When the parent menu item is a composite menu type, the operation sequence from the parent menu item to the current menu item can be determined based on the configuration operation sequence of the parent menu item.

[0074] As described in the above embodiments regarding the configuration operation sequence of each menu item, when the parent menu item is a composite menu type, the configuration operation sequence of the parent menu item represents the operation sequence for locating extended menu items and hidden menu items through the parent menu item.

[0075] Specifically, the parent menu item of the current menu item can only be of type `menu`, `vlist_menu`, or `vsetting_menu`. The method for determining the cursor movement direction and number of moves to locate the current menu item differs depending on the type of the parent menu item. For example, when the parent menu item is of type `menu`, the direction and number of moves from the parent menu item to the current menu item are downwards, and the number of moves is the row number of the current menu item minus one. When the parent menu item is of type `vlist_menu`, the direction and number of moves from the parent menu item to the current menu item are determined by its type value, and the number of moves is the row number of the current menu item minus one. When the parent menu item is of type `vsetting_menu`, the direction and number of moves from the parent menu item to the current menu item are downwards, and the number of moves is the row number of the current menu item minus one.

[0076] By following the above steps, when determining the parent menu item of the current menu item, the operation sequence from the parent menu item to the current menu item can be determined based on the configured operation sequence of the parent menu item.

[0077] A3. Update the parent menu item to the new current menu item and return to step A1 to execute.

[0078] Specifically, once the parent menu item of the current menu item is determined, and the operation sequence from the parent menu item to the current menu item is determined, the parent menu item can be designated as the new current menu item. At the same time, the menu item identification information of the new current menu item (including at least the menu item name, the parent menu item name, and the auxiliary identifier) ​​is obtained, and then the process returns to step A1 for execution.

[0079] Repeat steps A1-A3 until the current menu item is the root menu item, then stop the loop. Then, use the operation sequences obtained during the loop to determine the positioning operation sequence for locating the target menu item from the menu system.

[0080] Specifically, during the cyclic execution of steps A1-A3 above, the loop can be stopped when the current menu item is confirmed to be the root menu item. Then, the operation sequences obtained during the cyclic execution of steps A1-A3 above are concatenated to obtain the positioning operation sequence from the root menu item of the menu system to the target menu item.

[0081] It can be understood that in step S102 above, the sequence of operations for locating the target menu item from the menu system is automatically determined by automatically backtracking the menu item.

[0082] S103. Based on the positioning operation sequence, locate the target menu item from the menu system, and configure the target menu item according to the configuration value.

[0083] Specifically, after determining the sequence of operations to locate the target menu item from the menu system, following this sequence will locate the target menu item. Once the target menu item is located, it can be configured according to the user-inputted configuration value. For example, following the configuration operation sequence for the target menu item will set its value to the user-inputted value.

[0084] exist Figure 1 In the test system shown, after determining the positioning operation sequence for locating the target menu item from the menu system, the automated test platform converts the positioning operation sequence into control instructions and converts the configuration value of the target menu item into control parameters. The control instructions and control parameters are then sent to the test device, which enables the test device to locate the target menu item from the menu system by executing the control instructions and set the value of the target menu item to the configuration value.

[0085] As described above, the menu item configuration method provided in this application only requires the user to input the menu item identifier information of the target menu item to be configured and the configuration value of the target menu item when configuring menu items in a menu system. Then, based on the menu item identifier information and menu configuration file input by the user, this method can perform a menu item backtracking operation starting from the target menu item to determine the positioning operation sequence for locating the target menu item in the menu system. Then, based on this positioning operation sequence, the target menu item is located in the menu system, and configured according to the configuration value input by the user. This method can automatically locate and configure any menu item in the menu system, thereby greatly reducing the workload during menu item configuration, lowering the labor and time costs of menu item configuration, and improving the automation level and efficiency of menu item configuration.

[0086] Applying the above methods to the menu system testing process can improve testing efficiency.

[0087] In some implementations of the menu item configuration method, after determining the positioning operation sequence for locating the target menu item from the menu system, menu item positioning configuration information corresponding to the target menu item can be further generated.

[0088] The menu item positioning configuration information corresponding to the target menu item mentioned above is used to record the positioning configuration information of the target menu item, specifically including the menu item name, the positioning operation sequence of the menu item, the configuration operation sequence of the menu item, the parent menu item name, the menu item explanation, the parent menu item explanation, and auxiliary identifiers.

[0089] Figure 3 A schematic diagram illustrating menu item location configuration information is provided. This diagram shows the location configuration information for the menu item "Network performance mode" in the firmware menu system.

[0090] In the menu item positioning configuration information corresponding to the target menu item, the positioning operation sequence of the target menu item can be determined during the execution of the menu item configuration method described in the above embodiments. The configuration operation sequence of the menu item, the parent menu item name, the menu item explanation, the parent menu item explanation, and the auxiliary identifier can be obtained from the configuration information of the target menu item in the menu configuration file described above.

[0091] The menu item location configuration information described above allows for a clearer recording of the target menu item's location operation sequence and other configuration information. This enables more efficient acquisition of the target menu item's relevant configuration information based on the menu item location configuration information.

[0092] In another embodiment of the menu item configuration method, in addition to determining the positioning operation sequence for locating the target menu item from the menu system, a configuration operation sequence for configuring the target menu item as the configuration value is also determined based on the configuration value of the target menu item and the configuration operation sequence of the target menu item.

[0093] Specifically, as described in the above embodiments, the menu item configuration operation sequence stored in the menu configuration file records the operation sequence for configuring the value of the menu item. That is, by performing the operation according to the configuration operation sequence, the value of the menu item can be set to a specific value.

[0094] In this embodiment, the configuration operation sequence of the target menu item is determined from the menu configuration file, and then the configuration operation sequence of configuring the target menu item to the configuration value is determined according to the configuration value of the target menu item.

[0095] Based on this, this embodiment further determines a positioning configuration operation sequence for configuring the target menu item based on the positioning operation sequence for locating the target menu item from the menu system and the configuration operation sequence for configuring the target menu item to the aforementioned configuration value. This positioning configuration operation sequence is the operation sequence for configuring the target menu item to the aforementioned configuration value.

[0096] The aforementioned location configuration operation sequence refers to the sequence of operations that locates the target menu item from the menu system and, after locating the target menu item, sets its value to the aforementioned configuration value. In other words, this location configuration operation sequence includes both the operation sequence for locating the target menu item and the operation sequence for setting its value.

[0097] As an example implementation, the positioning operation sequence for locating the target menu item from the menu system is concatenated with the configuration operation sequence for configuring the target menu item to the aforementioned configuration value to obtain the positioning configuration operation sequence for configuring the target menu item to the aforementioned configuration value. In this concatenation operation, the positioning operation sequence for locating the target menu item from the menu system comes first, followed by the configuration operation sequence for configuring the target menu item to the aforementioned configuration value.

[0098] by Figure 3 Taking the menu item "Network performance mode" as an example, assuming the user inputs configuration information indicating that "Network performance mode" is set to "enable", then by executing the menu item configuration method described in the above embodiment, the desired result is obtained. Figure 3 After locating the configuration information of the menu item shown, the location configuration operation sequence for setting Network performance mode to enable can be obtained based on the location operation sequence (location), configuration operation sequence (configSelectValue), and configuration value (enable) of the menu item Network performance mode recorded therein.

[0099] Based on the correspondence between the operation primitives and simulated manual operation identifiers shown in Table 1, the positioning configuration operation sequence in the operation primitive format is converted into the simulated manual configuration operation sequence format as esc_d_14-control_m-esc_d_3-control_m-esc_d_6-control_m-control_m-esc_d_1-control_m-func_10_Y. Its specific meaning is: move the cursor down 14 times, press Enter, move it down 3 times, press Enter, move it down 6 times, press Enter, press Enter, move it down 1 time, press F10, and press the confirm key Y.

[0100] After determining the configuration operation sequence for configuring the target menu item to the configuration value in the manner described above, when configuring the target menu item, simply follow the determined positioning configuration operation sequence for configuring the target menu item to the configuration value to locate the target menu item from the menu system and set the value of the target menu item to the configuration value.

[0101] For example in Figure 1 In the application scenario shown, after the automated testing platform obtains the positioning configuration operation sequence that configures the target menu item to the configuration value through the above processing, it converts the positioning configuration operation sequence into a control command and then sends the control command to the testing device. The testing device executes the received control command, thereby executing the above positioning configuration operation sequence and thus configuring the target menu item in the menu system under test to the above configuration value.

[0102] In another embodiment, the resulting location configuration operation sequence for configuring the target menu item as the configuration value is represented by simulating a manual configuration operation sequence.

[0103] When performing the positioning configuration operation sequence described above for configuring the target menu item to the configuration value, the positioning configuration operation sequence is first converted into an ANSI escape sequence code, and then the ANSI escape sequence code is sent to the test device so that the test device sets the value of the target menu item to the configuration value by executing the operation corresponding to the ANSI escape sequence code.

[0104] Table 2 shows the correspondence between key operations for simulating manual configuration and ANSI escape sequences. Based on this table, the conversion of the positioning configuration operation sequence to ANSI escape sequence code can be realized.

[0105] Table 2 Converting the positioning configuration operation sequence into ANSI escape sequence codes and then sending the ANSI escape sequence codes to the test device facilitates the test device's execution of the received ANSI escape sequence codes, thereby improving the execution efficiency of the positioning configuration operation sequence.

[0106] Below, in Figure 1 Taking the test task of "setting the menu item QSPI Flash WP in the firmware menu to Enable, exiting the firmware menu after successful setting, and entering the OS to read the value of the relevant status register" as an example in the test system shown, the complete processing procedure of the menu item configuration method provided in this application embodiment is described by way of example: 1. The user pre-enters a firmware menu configuration file according to the firmware menu design. This firmware menu configuration file records the firmware menu information related to the QSPI Flash WP menu items. The firmware menu configuration file can be represented in the form of a firmware menu configuration information table as shown in Table 3.

[0107] Table 3 2. The user enters the menu item name QSPI Flash WP, the setting value Enable, its parent menu item name MISC Config, and auxiliary identifier 1 on the automated testing platform.

[0108] 3. Users specify the test cases to be run on the automated testing platform.

[0109] 4. The automated test platform generates automated test tasks to enable and test the QSPI Flash WP. This includes generating, based on user input and the firmware menu configuration file, automated test tasks by executing the menu item configuration method provided in the above embodiments of this application, such as... Figure 4 The QSPI Flash WP menu item location configuration information is shown. Combined with the user-input settings, the menu item location operation sequence and configuration operation sequence are added to the configuration saving primitive `func_10_Y` to form a complete location configuration operation sequence simulating a manual configuration operation sequence: `esc_d_16-control_m-esc_d_3-control_m-esc_d_0-control_m-esc_d_4-control_m-esc_d_1-control_m-func_10_Y`. Finally, based on this location configuration operation sequence and test cases, an automated test task file for QSPI Flash WP enable testing is generated.

[0110] 5. Users submit QSPI Flash WP enable test tasks to the automated testing platform.

[0111] 6. The automated testing platform executes the automated testing task: (1) Send a command to the test equipment to remotely power on the test equipment.

[0112] (2) When the test equipment is powered on and the message “Press \[F8\] to Setup” appears, send the escape sequence code of F8.

[0113] (3) After the test device enters the firmware menu interface, the positioning configuration operation sequence, represented in the form of a simulated manual configuration operation sequence in the task file, is converted into the corresponding positioning configuration key escape sequence code based on the key escape sequence table shown in Table 2, and sent to the test device. After receiving the code, the test device executes the operation corresponding to the positioning configuration key escape sequence code. At this time, the cursor on the firmware menu will first move down 16 times, select Advanced Config and press Enter; then move down 3 times, select Feature and press Enter; then select MISC Config and press Enter directly; then move down 4 times, select QSPI Flash WP and press Enter; then move down 1 time from the drop-down menu, select Enable and press Enter; then press F10 and confirm to save the menu item configuration.

[0114] (4) Once it is detected that the test equipment has been successfully configured, a command is sent to the test equipment to restart it.

[0115] (5) After the test device enters the OS, issue a command to execute the test program.

[0116] (6) During the test, the platform returns the test results to the user.

[0117] (7) When the test ends, the platform sends a command to the test device to shut down the test device.

[0118] Similar to the menu item configuration method described above, another embodiment of this application provides a menu item positioning method. In this method, when obtaining the menu item configuration information input by the user, only the menu item identification information of the target menu item needs to be obtained.

[0119] Then, referring to step S102 in the above embodiment, a menu item backtracking operation is performed starting from the target menu item based on the menu item identification information and the menu configuration file, so as to determine the positioning operation sequence for locating the target menu item from the menu system.

[0120] Furthermore, based on this positioning operation sequence, the target menu item can be located from the menu system.

[0121] The specific processing procedures for each step in the above menu item location method can be found in the corresponding steps of the above menu item configuration method, and will not be described in detail in this embodiment. By executing this menu item location method, the target menu item can be automatically located from the menu system, thereby improving the efficiency of locating menu items from the menu system.
