As shown in fig. 1, the multi-device management method for testing specifically includes the following steps, and the order of the steps in the flowchart may be changed and some steps may be omitted according to different requirements.

S21: and distributing the application program to be tested and the automatic test script corresponding to the application program to be tested to a plurality of second servers, so that the second servers inform a plurality of test equipment to install the application program to be tested and the automatic test script corresponding to the application program to be tested.

In this embodiment, a tester provides and uploads an installation package of an application program to be tested, and at the same time, an automatic test script corresponding to the application program to be tested is packaged and uploaded to a first server. The first server distributes the installation package of the application program to be tested and the automatic test scripts of the corresponding packaged application program to be tested to a plurality of second servers, the second servers distribute the installation package of the application program to be tested and the automatic test scripts of the corresponding packaged application program to be tested to a plurality of test devices so as to inform the plurality of test devices to download the installation package of the application program to be tested and the automatic test scripts of the corresponding packaged application program to be tested and complete the installation of the application program to be tested, and meanwhile, the automatic test scripts of the application program to be tested are installed and run.

The device status information table records status information of each testing device, and the status information may include: an identification number (ID) of the test device, an Internet Protocol (IP) address of the corresponding second server, a connection state, and the number of current test cases. The identification number of the testing device is an Identity unique to the testing device, and may be, for example, an International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI). The connection state may include: the first connection state may be 1 to indicate that the test device has successfully connected to the second server, and the second connection state may be 0 to indicate that the test device has not connected to the second server. The number of test cases is the sum of the number of test cases currently executed by the test equipment and the number of test cases to be executed. It should be understood that the number of test cases currently being executed by one test device may only be 1 or 0, and if the number of test cases currently being executed is 1, it indicates that the test device is currently executing the test cases, and possibly one or more test cases to be executed are in the execution queue. If the number of the test cases currently being executed is 0, it indicates that the test equipment does not execute any test case currently, and the number of the test cases to be executed is inevitably 0, that is, the test equipment is currently in an idle state, and it is impossible that the test cases to be executed are in the execution queue.

Preferably, the method may further comprise: and acquiring the state information of the corresponding test equipment sent by each second server every other preset time period, and updating the equipment state information table in the first server.

And when the current test case number of the test equipment exceeds the preset test case number threshold value, considering that the current test tasks of the test equipment are more, and not suitable for redistributing the test tasks. And when the current test case number of the test equipment is less than or equal to the preset test case number threshold, the current test tasks of the test equipment are considered to be fewer, and the test tasks can be redistributed.

3) And the first server sends the ID number of the second candidate test device and the IP address of the corresponding second server to the corresponding second server.

And the first server sends the ID number of the second candidate test device and the IP address of the corresponding second server to the corresponding second server so as to control the corresponding test device to execute the test case in the automatic test script of the application program to be tested through the second server.

And after the test equipment executes a test case, the automatic test script generates a test report. And after receiving the test report reported by the corresponding test equipment, the second server reports the test report to the first server.

The test report may include: name of test case, serial number of test case, test result and running time. The test results include: test success or test failure. Only one test result is included in a test report, i.e., the test result in the test report is either a successful test or a failed test. Different labels may be used to indicate different test results, for example, a first label 1 indicates that the test result is a test success, and a second label 0 indicates that the test result is a test failure. The test results may be saved in json.

And when the current test case number of the test equipment exceeds the preset test case number threshold, the current test tasks of the test equipment are considered to be more, and the test tasks are not suitable to be redistributed. And when the current test case number of the test equipment is less than or equal to the preset test case number threshold value, the current test tasks of the test equipment are considered to be fewer, and the test tasks can be redistributed.
