The Network is typically the Internet, but may be any Network including, but not limited to, a Local Area Network (LAN), a Metropolitan Area Network (MAN), a Wide Area Network (WAN), a mobile, wireline or wireless Network, a private Network, or any combination of virtual private networks. In some embodiments, data exchanged over a network is represented using techniques and/or formats including Hypertext Mark-up Language (HTML), Extensible Markup Language (XML), and the like. All or some of the links may also be encrypted using conventional encryption techniques such as Secure Socket Layer (SSL), Transport Layer Security (TLS), Virtual Private Network (VPN), Internet Protocol Security (IPsec). In other embodiments, custom and/or dedicated data communication techniques may also be used in place of, or in addition to, the data communication techniques described above.

In a real application scene, the information management platform is respectively connected with each information display platform and the information release platforms, when information can be displayed at a certain information display position in the information display platform, the information display platform sends an information display request to the information management platform, the information management platform sends an information release request to each information release platform after receiving the information display request, each information release platform feeds back a response aiming at the information release request to the information management platform, the information management platform determines which information release platform released displayable information to be released at the information display position according to the response fed back by each information release platform, the information release platform sends the determined displayable information to the information display platform, and the information display platform displays the displayable information at the corresponding information display position.

For convenience of explaining a later scheme, the embodiment of the present invention first explains several related terms related to the programmatic advertisement:

ADX: the advertisement trading platform is also called a programmed advertisement real-time trading platform and is used for receiving the advertisement request of the information display platform and sending the advertisement trading request to the DSPs according to the advertisement request so that each DSP can carry out advertisement real-time trading conveniently.

And (4) DSP: and the demand side platform receives an advertisement transaction request sent from the ADX according to the demand of the advertiser, and determines whether to participate in advertisement transaction and advertisement bidding according to preset strategy information.

PDB (programmed Direct Buy, proprietary programming): the system is also called a price and quantity guarantee mode, namely the price of the resource put by the client is fixed, and the flow rate predetermined by the client is guaranteed to be finished;

PD (Preferred Deal): the method is also called a price-guaranteeing and volume-guaranteeing mode, namely the price of the resource released by the client is fixed, but the flow rate predetermined by the client is not guaranteed to be completed;

RTB (Real Time Bidding ): the price and the flow are not fixed, but the price and the flow are paid in an advertisement real-time putting link;

transaction ID: in the programmed transaction advertisement of PDB/PD mode, the transaction ID is a contract for transaction in the advertisement putting process, and the advertiser and the media system complete contract-type putting of both parties through the transaction ID.

Specifically, for example, the real application scenario is a programmed advertisement scenario, the information management platform may be an ADX deployed by an advertisement transaction management service provider, the information delivery platform may be a DSP developed by an advertiser, and the information presentation platform may be various third-party application programs that run in a user terminal and can present advertisements, such as a video client, an audio client, and a web client. In a real application scenario, when a third-party application program running in a user terminal runs, if an advertisement position in a program interface can display an advertisement, the third-party application program sends an advertisement request (namely, the information display request) to an ADX, the ADX sends an advertisement transaction request (namely, the information delivery request) to each DSP after receiving the advertisement request, each DSP autonomously decides whether to participate in the transaction and bid price of the advertisement position after receiving the advertisement transaction request, and feeds back a response to the advertisement transaction request to the ADX, if the decision determines to participate in the transaction, feeds back the bid price for the advertisement position display to the ADX, and if the decision determines not to participate in the transaction, feeds back a response not to the ADX. And after receiving the response of each DSP to the advertisement transaction request, the ADX sends the advertisement released by the DSP with the highest bid to a third-party application program, and the third-party application program displays the advertisement at the advertisement position.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the operation scene of the system shown in fig. 1 is not a real application scene, but is a simulation scene built based on the real application scene, in the simulation scene, the information management platform 142 is set based on the information management platform in the real application scene, and is used to simulate the function of the information management platform in the real application scene, and the information delivery platform running on the information delivery terminal 120 in the simulation scene may be an information delivery platform to be tested; or, in order to simulate a real competitive environment, the information delivery platform running on the information delivery terminal 120 in the simulation scenario may include an information delivery platform that has already been tested, in addition to the information delivery platform to be tested, that is, one information delivery platform passes the test of the test system shown in fig. 1, and after the information delivery platform is put into the real application scenario, the connection between the information delivery platform and the information management platform for testing (i.e., the information management platform 142) is still maintained.

In the system shown in fig. 1, since the application scenario is not real, the user terminal for running the information presentation platform in the real application scenario is not included, but the information presentation platform in the real application scenario is simulated by the docking platform 144 to trigger the interaction between the information management platform 142 and the information delivery platforms in the respective delivery terminals 120.

FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating an interactive functionality test architecture, according to an exemplary embodiment. Taking the information management platform, the information delivery platform, and the docking platform related to the system shown in fig. 1 as an example, as shown in fig. 2, the docking platform 21, the information management platform 22, and the designated information delivery platform 23 are connected to each other through a wired or wireless network, where the designated information delivery platform 23 is an information delivery platform that needs to be tested, and a test process of an interaction function between the designated information delivery platform 23 and the information management platform 22 is as follows:

1) the specified information delivery platform 23 sends a test request to the docking platform 21 to request the testing of the interactive function between the specified information delivery platform 23 and the information management platform 22.

2) The docking platform 21 generates a first information display request, where the first information display request is used to request to obtain displayable information displayed according to a preset display requirement.

The first information presentation request is a request sent by an information presentation platform in a simulated real application scene, namely, the format and the contained content of the first information presentation request are consistent with the request sent by the information presentation platform in the real application scene.

3) The docking platform 21 sends the first information presentation request to the information management platform 22.

4) The information management platform 22 sends a first information delivery request to the specified information delivery platform 23.

In this embodiment of the present invention, after receiving the first information display request, the information management platform 22 processes the first information display request according to the processing procedure of the real application scenario, and sends a request for requesting the designated information delivery platform 23 to deliver information to the designated information delivery platform 23, and the format and the content of the first information delivery request are consistent with the request sent by the information management platform in the real application scenario to each information delivery platform, so as to simulate the real processing scenario.

5) The designated information delivery platform 23 feeds back a response to the information management platform 22 according to the first information delivery request.

After receiving the first information delivery request, the designated information delivery platform 23 determines a response to the first information delivery request according to a preset policy, such as not participating in competition, or participating in competitive quotation and displayable information.

6) The information management platform 22 generates test result data according to the response fed back by the specified information delivery platform 23.

7) The information management platform 22 transmits the test result data to the docking platform 21.

8) The docking platform 21 sends the test result data to the specified information delivery platform 23.

Through the scheme shown in the embodiment of the invention, when the interactive function between the information management platform and the specified information releasing platform is tested, after the test request sent by the specified information releasing platform is received, the first information display request for requesting to display information according to the preset display requirement is generated and sent to the information management platform so as to trigger the information management platform to interact with the specified information releasing platform according to the real application scene, and after the test result data generated by the information management platform according to the response of the specified information releasing platform is received, the test result data is provided for the specified information releasing platform, in the process, the specified information releasing platform automatically requests for testing, in the test process, the interaction between the information management platform and the specified information releasing platform is automatically triggered, and the test result data is automatically fed back to the specified information releasing platform, the manual intervention of developers is not needed, the time for coordination between the developers of the information delivery platform and the operators of the information management platform is saved, and the development efficiency of the information delivery platform is improved.

The following embodiments of the present invention will further describe the above testing process by taking the system shown in fig. 1 as an example for a programmed advertising system. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram illustrating an interactive functionality testing flow, according to an exemplary embodiment. Taking the programmed advertisement as an example, the PDB/PD delivery mode in the programmed advertisement requires a flow to be taken down for formal delivery, and the RTB mode does not require the flow to be taken. For these two modes, the flow of the interactive function test proposed by the embodiment of the present invention is shown in fig. 3.

In fig. 3, the testing process of the interaction function between the DSP and the ADX is divided into: agreement association and advertisement presentation. In the protocol joint debugging stage, a real-time bidding interface protocol is subjected to joint debugging test by a duplicate point, so that the bidding interface protocol is ensured to be correct; in the advertisement display stage, it is important to check whether the advertisement material to be delivered can be displayed according to the expected effect, and whether the advertisement material can be normally clicked, downloaded, and invoked by APP (Application program).

Wherein, the protocol joint debugging stage comprises the following steps:

1) DSP developers read documents and develop interfaces.

After logging in the ADX system document address, the DSP downloads the system document provided by the ADX, and a developer of the DSP reads the system document and develops an interface in the DSP, which is in butt joint with the ADX.

2) After the development of an interface which is in butt joint with ADX in the DSP is finished, the DSP logs in a butt joint platform, if the DSP is in butt joint with PDB/PD resources, resource positions (information such as display positions and the like) to be in butt joint need to be selected, the butt joint platform is requested to automatically generate a transaction ID, if the DSP is in butt joint with RTB resources, the transaction ID does not need to be generated, and the DSP can automatically enter the next step only after selecting the corresponding resource positions so as to prompt developers of the DSP to upload advertisement materials.

3) The DSP triggers a simulation request on the docking platform in a self-service manner, the simulation request is an advertisement putting request (namely the first information putting request) sent to the DSP by an ADX simulation real application scene, the DSP returns a response to the ADX according to a preset protocol, the ADX simulates a real flow to process the DSP response and generate test result data (the test result data can be represented by a state code, whether the response is successful or not, if a correct state code is returned to represent that the protocol joint debugging is successful, and if an abnormal state code is returned to represent that the protocol joint debugging is failed), the ADX sends the test result data to the docking platform, and the docking platform feeds back the test result data to the DSP.

The advertisement display stage comprises the following steps:

1) after the protocol joint debugging is successful, the docking platform allocates an appointed user account for the DSP, and the DSP logs in a display platform (such as XX video, XX news, XX flash newspaper and the like) to which the selected resource bit belongs by using the appointed user account.

2) And the display platform logging in the specified user account sends an advertisement request to the docking platform, the docking platform requests the ADX to acquire the advertisement of the DSP according to a real flow, and the acquired advertisement is sent to the display platform for display. And if the advertisement is not normally displayed, replacing the material meeting the specification by the developer of the DSP according to the display condition and continuing to refresh the advertisement until the advertisement is normally displayed.

Fig. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a method for testing an interactive function of an information delivery platform, which may be used in the implementation environment shown in fig. 1, according to an exemplary embodiment. Taking the testing of the protocol joint debugging stage of the ADX and the DSP as an example, the method for testing the interactive function of the information delivery platform may include the following steps:

step 401, the designated information delivery platform sends a test request to the docking platform, and the docking platform receives the test request.

The test request is used for requesting to test the interactive function between the specified information delivery platform and the information management platform.

In the embodiment of the present invention, a developer of a specific information delivery platform may develop the specific information delivery platform according to an interface protocol specified by a system document provided by an information management platform, and after the development is completed according to the interface protocol specified by the system document, the specific information delivery platform includes a function of interacting with the information management platform and a function of interacting with the docking platform.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the test request may include a display requirement of the information released by the specified information releasing platform, where the display requirement may include an information display position, or an information display position and an information display mode.

The information display position is a position where the designated information delivery platform wishes to display the information delivered by the designated information delivery platform, for example, a designated information display platform (such as an XX video client), or a designated position in the designated information display platform (such as a designated position in the XX video client), and the like.

The information display mode is a display mode of the information released by the designated information releasing platform in the information display platform, for example, the information is displayed cyclically according to a certain period, or displayed according to a preset time length.

Optionally, when receiving the test request, the docking platform may push a docking interface to the specified information delivery platform, where the docking interface is used to instruct the information delivery platform to set the preset display requirement in the docking interface; and receiving the test request which is sent by the appointed information release platform and contains the preset display requirement.

In the embodiment of the invention, the docking platform can trigger the appointed information releasing platform to send the test request through a preset docking interface, and the appointed information releasing platform automatically inputs the display requirement in the docking interface after receiving the docking interface, wherein the logic of the appointed information releasing platform inputting the display requirement in the docking interface can be preset by a developer; alternatively, in another possible implementation manner, the step of inputting the presentation requirement in the docking interface may also be performed manually by a developer who specifies the information delivery platform. Optionally, the docking platform may further push, to the specified information delivery platform, specifications that the displayable information corresponding to the display requirement is to meet, such as size and format of the displayable information, according to the display requirement selected by the specified information delivery platform.

For example, please refer to fig. 5 and fig. 6, which illustrate schematic diagrams of two docking interfaces according to an embodiment of the present invention. Taking an example of testing an interaction function between a DSP and an ADX applied to a programmed advertisement, after the DSP is accessed to a docking platform, the docking platform may push a docking interface to the DSP, the DSP selects an advertisement slot resource to be docked in the docking interface (i.e., the display requirement may include which position in which program is displayed, a display mode, and the like), as shown in fig. 5, if the DSP puts an advertisement according to a PDB/PD putting mode, the DSP automatically clicks a button for generating a transaction ID, and then the docking interface generates a transaction ID corresponding to the advertisement slot and a corresponding material specification requirement (i.e., a specification that can be satisfied by displayable information corresponding to the display requirement); as shown in fig. 6, if the DSP delivers the advertisement according to the RTB delivery mode, the transaction ID does not need to be generated, and the corresponding material specification requirement is directly displayed. A developer of the DSP may request the uploading of advertising material according to the material specification shown in fig. 4 or fig. 5.

Entering a protocol testing stage, sending a test request to a docking platform by a specified information delivery platform in a mode of simulating a user to click a 'send request' button in a docking interface, triggering interaction between an information management platform and the specified information delivery platform by a subsequent docking platform according to the test request, and acquiring test result data generated by the information management platform, wherein the process refers to the following steps 402 to 408.

Step 402, the docking platform generates a first information display request according to the test request, where the first information display request is used to request to obtain displayable information displayed according to a preset display requirement.

In order to achieve the purpose of testing according to a real use scenario, in the embodiment of the present invention, when the first information display request is generated, the docking platform simulates an information display request sent by each information display platform in a real application scenario to the information management platform to generate the first information display request in a simulated manner.

For example, taking the application to testing the interaction function between the DSP and the ADX in the programmed advertisement as an example, the docking platform collects all terminal types corresponding to the advertisement display platform in advance, such as information of an iPhone, an iPad, an Android Phone (Android Phone), an Android tablet (Android Pad), and the like, and information of the advertisement display platform (such as XX video, XX news, and the like), collects a part of user information on line at the same time, and stores the three parts of information in the database as an original resource basis for generating an advertisement request (i.e., the first information display request).

Wherein each ad slot initializes the following two attributes:

the device attribute is as follows: the ad spots exist on which devices, such as news client-stream ads, may exist on an iPhone/Android handset.

Media property: which media platform the ad slot belongs to, e.g. news client-stream ad, media platform XX news.

After the DSP simulates clicking to send a request on the docking interface of the docking platform, the docking interface of the docking platform calls the interface of the docking platform to transmit a test request to the docking platform, where the test request may include the following information:

after receiving the test request, the docking platform analyzes the type of the request:

if the requested category is PDB/PD mode, then transaction IDs are resolved, each transaction ID being associated with the following information:

transaction ID- > { DSP ID, ad spot, ad format }

The docking platform analyzes the media platform information according to the media attribute of the advertisement position associated with the transaction ID, analyzes the equipment information according to the equipment number transmitted in the request, randomly selects information of one user from the user information base, and combines the information into a simulated advertisement request, namely the simulated advertisement request comprises the media information, the equipment information, the user information and the transaction ID.

If the request type is RTB mode, the docking platform can analyze the media platform information directly according to the advertisement position and combine the media platform information into a simulated advertisement request, and the simulated advertisement request comprises media information, equipment information and user information.

In step 403, the docking platform sends the first information display request to the information management platform, and the information management platform receives the first information display request.

In practical applications, the types of terminals where the information display platforms are located (for example, the iOS terminal, the Android terminal, the Windows terminal, and the like) may be different, and correspondingly, the information display requests sent to the information management platform by the information display platforms in the different types of terminals may also be different. The terminal platform is a terminal type for operating the information display platform.

The docking platform sends the first information display request to the information management platform, and sends the information display request corresponding to each terminal platform to the information management platform respectively.

Step 404, the information management platform sends a first information delivery request to the designated information delivery platform, and the designated information delivery platform receives the first information delivery request.

Because the first information display request is a request generated by the docking platform according to the information display request sent by each information display platform to the information management platform in the real application scene in a simulation manner, the information management platform can process the first information display request according to the real application scene so as to send the first information release request to the specified information release platform.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, if the information delivery platform connected to the information management platform is not more than one designated information delivery platform, the information management platform may send the first information delivery request to all the information delivery platforms including the designated information delivery platform.

Step 405, the designated information delivery platform returns a response to the first information delivery request to the information management platform, and the information management platform receives the response.

After receiving the first information release request, the designated information release platform processes the first information release request according to a preset logic, for example, determines whether to participate in competitive display, and if so, may also determine information such as competitive quotation. And after the appointed information delivery platform processes the first information delivery request, returning a response to the first information delivery request to the information management platform.

Optionally, if the system further includes another information delivery platform other than the specified information delivery platform, the information management platform may further receive a response to the first information delivery request, which is fed back by the other information delivery platform.

And 406, generating test result data according to the response by the information management platform.

Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the information management platform may represent the test result data in a form of a status code, and different status codes represent different response results.

Optionally, the test result data may further include other contents besides the status code, for example, the information management platform may also use the first information delivery request and an original text of a response of the specified information delivery platform to the first information delivery request as a part of the test result data.

Step 407, the information management platform sends the test result data to the docking platform, and the docking platform receives the test result data.

In the embodiment of the invention, after the information management platform generates the test result data, the test result data is also sent to the docking platform.

Step 408, the docking platform sends the test result data to the specified information delivery platform.

After receiving the test result data, the docking platform can send the test result data to the designated information delivery platform in an interface form. For example, the docking platform may push a test result interface including the test result data to the specified information delivery platform.

Optionally, if the first information delivery request includes an information display request corresponding to each terminal platform, the docking platform may push test result data corresponding to each terminal platform to the specified information delivery platform through an interface, for example, the test result interface may include a label corresponding to each terminal platform, and the test result data corresponding to one terminal platform is displayed under each label.

For example, taking a programmed advertisement as an example, after the docking platform generates a simulation generation advertisement request, the simulation generation advertisement request is directly sent to the ADX, the ADX processes the advertisement request according to the real situation and sends an advertisement delivery request to the DSP, and the DSP returns a response to the ADX after receiving the advertisement delivery request. And after receiving the DSP response, the ADX analyzes the DSP response and checks the DSP response to obtain test result data, and returns the test result data to the docking platform, the docking platform displays the test result data of the ADX to a test result interface pushed to the DSP, and developers of the DSP can see the test result data in time to check whether the response is correct, the error reason and the like.

For example, please refer to fig. 7, which illustrates a test result interface according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the test result interface shown in fig. 7, each tag corresponds to a terminal platform, such as an iPhone, an iPad, an Android Phone, an Android Pad, and the like, and each tag contains a test result corresponding to the terminal platform, where the specific test result includes a status code, an explanation of the status code, a request sent by the ADX to the DSP, and a response returned by the DSP to the ADX.

To sum up, in the method shown in the embodiment of the present invention, when testing the interaction function between the information management platform and the designated information delivery platform, after receiving the test request sent by the designated information delivery platform, a first information display request for requesting to display information according to a preset display requirement is generated, and the first information display request is sent to the information management platform to trigger the information management platform to interact with the designated information delivery platform according to a real application scenario, and after receiving the test result data generated by the information management platform according to the response of the designated information delivery platform, the test result data is provided to the designated information delivery platform, in the above process, the designated information delivery platform automatically requests a test, and in the test process, the interaction between the information management platform and the designated information delivery platform is automatically triggered, and the test result data is automatically fed back to the designated information delivery platform, the manual intervention of developers is not needed, the time for coordination between the developers of the information delivery platform and the operators of the information management platform is saved, and the development efficiency of the information delivery platform is improved.

Fig. 8 is a flowchart illustrating a method for testing an interactive function of an information delivery platform, which may be used in the implementation environment shown in fig. 1, according to an exemplary embodiment. Taking the test of the advertisement display stage of the DSP as an example, the method for testing the interactive function of the information delivery platform may include the following steps:

step 801, the information display platform sends a second information display request to the docking platform, and the docking platform receives the second information display request.

And the second information display request comprises a user account logged in the information display platform.

Step 802, when the user account is the designated user account, the docking platform sends a third information display request to the information management platform, and the information management platform receives the third information display request.

And the third information display request is used for requesting to display information according to the preset display requirement. And the specified user account is a user account preset by the docking platform for the specified information delivery platform.

In the embodiment of the invention, when the specified information delivery platform needs to perform the advertisement display stage test, the specified user account can log in the information display platform to trigger the information display platform to send the second information display request to the docking platform.

Before sending a third information display request to the information management platform, the docking platform further queries the display requirement according to the specified user account and the corresponding relationship between the specified user account and the display requirement, and generates the third information display request according to the display requirement.

In the embodiment of the present invention, a corresponding relationship between a specific user account and a display requirement of the specific information delivery platform may be preset in the docking platform, and the information display platform is a platform corresponding to an information display position in the display requirement.

In the embodiment of the invention, the information display platform is in butt joint with the butt joint platform, and when the information display platform sends the information display request, the information display platform detects the currently logged-in user account, if the currently logged-in user account belongs to a certain specific account set, the information display platform sends the information display request to the butt joint platform, and if the currently logged-in user account does not belong to a certain specific account set or does not currently log in the user account, the information display platform sends the information display request to the information management platform in a real application scene.

For the second information display request sent by the information display platform, the docking platform may detect whether the user account included in the second information display request is the designated user account corresponding to the display requirement, and if so, it indicates that the second information display request is the request sent by the information display platform corresponding to the designated information delivery platform, at this time, the docking platform may trigger the information management platform to return the displayable information for executing delivery by the information delivery platform to the information display platform, that is, subsequent steps 803 to 806.

Optionally, before receiving the second information display request sent by the information display platform, the docking platform may set the specified user account corresponding to the specified information delivery platform, and establish a corresponding relationship between the specified user account and the display requirement.

In other words, in the protocol joint debugging stage, after the docking platform acquires the display requirement of the designated information delivery platform, the corresponding designated user account may be determined for the designated information delivery platform, and the corresponding relationship between the designated user account and the display requirement may be established.

Or, the step of establishing the corresponding relationship between the specified user account and the display requirement may also be completed in the protocol joint debugging stage, and the test result data indicates that the specified information delivery platform successfully passes the test and then is executed.

When the specified user account corresponding to the specified information delivery platform is determined, the docking platform can distribute the specified user account to the specified information delivery platform; or receiving an account setting request sent by the specified information delivery platform, and setting a user account carried in the account setting request as the specified user account.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the specific user account may be an account directly allocated to the specific information delivery platform by the docking platform, and the docking platform may select one account from the specific account set as the specific user account allocated to the specific information delivery platform, and notify the specific user account to the specific information delivery platform.

Or the specified user account may also be an account set by the specified information delivery platform, for example, the specified information delivery platform may send an account setting request to the docking platform, where the account setting request carries a user account (which may be a user account logged in the specified information delivery platform, or a user account manually set by a developer of the specified information delivery platform), and after receiving the user account, the docking platform sets the user account as the specified user account and adds the specified user account into the specific account set.

Step 803, the information management platform sends a second information delivery request to the designated information delivery platform, and the designated information delivery platform receives the second information delivery request.

And after receiving the third information display request, the information management platform sends a second information release request to the specified information release platform according to the processing process in the real application scene.

Step 804, the designated information delivery platform returns a response to the second information delivery request to the information management platform, and the response includes exposable information.

And after receiving the second information release request, the designated information release platform returns a response carrying the displayable information to the information management platform.

When the system includes other information delivery platforms besides the specified information delivery platform, in order to enable the information management platform to always send the displayable information delivered by the specified information delivery platform to the information presentation platform for display, in the embodiment of the present invention, the specified information delivery platform may set the bid in the response to a higher bid.

Step 805, the information management platform sends the displayable information to the docking platform, and the docking platform receives the displayable information.

The information management platform determines that the displayable information released by the specified information releasing platform is sent to the information display platform for display according to the response sent by the specified information releasing platform, and then the displayable information can be sent to the docking platform.

In step 806, the docking platform sends the displayable information to the information display platform.

The docking platform may send an information presentation response including the presentable information to the information presentation platform. The information display response may be a response generated by the information management platform according to a processing procedure in the real application scene, that is, the information display response is identical to a response directly sent to the information display platform by the information management platform in the real application scene.

Or, the information presentation response may also be a response generated by the docking platform simulation information management platform according to a processing procedure in a real application scene.

In step 807, the information display platform displays the information capable of being displayed according to the display requirement.

For example, taking programmed advertisements as an example, after the protocol co-debugging is successful, the docking platform can allocate a specified user account of the DSP, and can ensure that the DSP brushes the advertisements issued by the DSP on the corresponding advertisement positions after logging in by using the specified user account; the DSP logs in the appointed user account to brush the advertisement, and a developer of the DSP verifies whether the advertisement can be normally displayed, clicked, downloaded, called up by the APP and the like according to the advertisement brushing. If the brushing advertisement display effect is problematic, the DSP developer replaces the material meeting the specification again through the DSP until the expected effect is achieved.

Please refer to fig. 9, which illustrates a corresponding relationship diagram according to an embodiment of the present invention. In order to realize the effect that an order is not required to be actually placed and the advertisements put in by the DSP can be brushed at each time, a 'DSP joint debugging registry' is constructed in the scheme, the advertisement positions of the DSP joint debugging are stored (namely, the display requirements), and each piece of joint debugging information is associated with a unique user account:

user account- > { transaction ID, advertisement slot, DSP ID, expiration date }.

The transaction ID only exists in the PDB/PD release mode, that is, the transaction ID generated in the joint agreement phase. The DSP joint debugging registration record is automatically generated after the protocol joint debugging is successful, and the user account is distributed to the DSP, wherein the validity period refers to the validity period of the incidence relation between the user account and the joint debugging information, and the DSP ID is the identification of the DSP.

In fig. 9, a docking platform is added between the advertisement display platform and the ADX as a "transfer station", and when there is an advertisement request from the advertisement display platform, the docking platform may process according to the processing flow shown in fig. 10.

Please refer to fig. 10, which illustrates a schematic diagram of an advertisement display testing process according to an embodiment of the present invention. In fig. 10, the original advertisement request of the advertisement presentation platform is hijacked by the docking platform, and the docking platform first finds the user account of the request from the original advertisement request and searches the user account from the "DSP joint debugging registry". If no record is found, the original advertisement request is passed through directly to the ADX; if the corresponding record is found, the original advertisement request is considered to be a DSP joint debugging request, and subsequent processing is carried out.

And the docking platform determines whether a PDB/PD release mode or an RTB release mode is adopted according to the joint debugging registration information associated with the user account so as to distinguish whether a transaction ID exists.

If the media request is in the PDB/PD mode, the docking platform reforms the media request content into a request of a transaction ID associated with a user account:

adding an order structure to the original advertisement request if the original request is an RTB request, and filling order information with a transaction ID and a DSP ID of a joint debugging DSP.

And if the original request is a PDB/PD request, modifying the transaction ID and the DSP ID in the original order structure into the transaction ID and the DSP ID recorded in the joint debugging registry.

If the request is in the RTB mode, the docking platform directly removes the order structure in the original request and reforms the request into the RTB request. And after the modification is finished, sending the modified release mode to the ADX corresponding to the RTB mode or the ADX corresponding to the PDB/PD mode.

And the ADX sends the request to the DSP after receiving the request and processing the request by a normal flow, and the DSP returns a response, so that the reply content can be ensured to be correct and the bidding is successful because the DSP finishes protocol joint debugging.

The ADX returns the selected DSP joint debugging advertisement to the docking platform, and after the docking platform receives the ADX return, the docking platform reforms the returned advertisement into a response with the original advertisement request according to the original advertisement request corresponding to the return:

firstly, if the original advertisement request is a PDB/PD mode request, adding a transaction ID and a DSP ID in the original request into a response order structure;

if the original ad request is an RTB mode request, remove the order structure in the response and fill a random final bid price.

After the docking platform is transformed to respond, the response is returned to the advertisement display platform, and the advertisement display platform can display the advertisement of the DSP joint debugging after receiving the response advertisement.

In summary, in the method shown in the embodiment of the present invention, when a process of displaying displayable information released by an appointed information releasing platform is tested, an appointed user account may be allocated to the appointed information releasing platform, after the appointed information releasing platform logs in the information displaying platform through the appointed user account, the information displaying platform is triggered to send an information displaying request to the docking platform, the docking platform triggers the information managing platform to obtain the displayable information released by the information appointed information releasing platform according to an execution process in a real application scene, and the docking platform sends the displayable information to the information displaying platform for displaying.
