The invention provides a testing method for interchanger transmission signal performance and a testing system, and belongs to the technical field of the interchanger test. The testing method comprises the steps: setting test duration, capture package file size, and network card corresponding relationship; configuring the IP address of network card 2 and a camera and a port 2 of the interchanger in the same network segment; configuring an in-direction flow mirror image of an interchanger port 3 to a port 1 connected with the network card 1; starting a timer, sending a command to the network card 1 and the network card 2, performing the continuous capture package by the network card 1 and the network card 2 and storing; and comparing the files one by one captured by the network card 1 and the network card 2 and recording the differences. The invention further provides the testing system for realizing the testing method. The configuration, capture package and comparison of the network cards and the interchanger are automatically completed, a tester only needs to construct the environment according to the network diagram, and open the device to test. The operation is simple, the judgment result is reliable, the test time can be freely set, and the test efficiency is improved.
