Abstract

The invention provides a fitting test device and a fitting test method. The fitting test device comprises a microprocessing unit and a signal conversion unit. The microprocessing unit is used for emitting artificial signals; the signal conversion unit is electrically connected with the microprocessing unit and a fitting, and used for receiving artificial signals and converting artificial signals into test signals, testing the fitting by using the test signals. The fitting gives back a feedback signal after receiving the test signals; after the signal conversion unit receives the feedback signal, the signal conversion unit transmits the feedback signal to the microprocessing unit so that the microprocessing unit determines whether the fitting runs without failure according to the feedback signal. The prior test mode takes time and the host computer is damaged by frequently plugging and unplugging. The fitting test device and the fitting test method eliminate the defects of the prior test mode, which reduces the test time and improves the production efficiency.
