In the present embodiment, the information processing system 100 is the second system to be tested, and the other system is the first system. The information processing system 100 and other systems may be introduced into the same hospital (new system and old system), or introduced into other hospitals (introduced in A hospital and B hospital). The same system or a new system and an old system). In the present embodiment, it is assumed that the systems are introduced into the same hospital (the information processing system 100 is a new system and the other systems are old systems).

  The test pattern creation unit 24 creates a test pattern for testing the information processing system 100 based on the job type operation log acquired by the job type operation log acquisition unit 22. The test pattern is a pattern as shown in FIGS. 7A, 7B, and 8. The details will be described later. The test pattern DB 26 stores patterns as shown in FIG. 7A, FIG. 7B, and FIG.

(Test terminal 30)
The test terminal 30 has a hardware configuration similar to that of the user terminal 50 (see FIG. 3B). In the test terminal 30, the CPU 190 executes a program stored in the ROM 192 or the HDD 196 or a program read by the portable storage medium drive 199 from the portable storage medium 191, whereby the input receiving unit 32 shown in FIG.

When the test result is “NG”, the specific content of the test result is stored. For other fields, the same information as the log master 16 is stored.

(Processing of test pattern creation device 20)
Next, the process of the test pattern creation apparatus 20 will be described in detail along the flowchart of FIG. 12 with reference to other drawings as appropriate.

  In the process of FIG. 12, first, in step S10, the job type operation log acquisition unit 22 waits until a test pattern creation instruction is input. In this case, when a test pattern creation instruction is input from the person in charge via the input unit 195 of the test terminal 30 and the information is transmitted to the job type operation log acquisition unit 22 via the test pattern creation unit 24, The operation log acquisition unit 22 proceeds to step S12.

  In step S12, the job type operation log acquisition unit 22 specifies one job type. For example, the job type operation log acquisition unit 22 identifies “doctor”.

  Next, in step S14, the job type operation log acquisition unit 22 acquires operation logs of other systems for each job type. In this case, the job type operation log acquisition unit 22 accesses the log master 16 of the server 10 of another system and acquires all operation logs of the job type “doctor”. For example, it is assumed that logs having contents as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 are stored in the log master 16 of the server 10 of another system.

  Next, in step S <b> 16, the test pattern creation unit 24 creates a test pattern for the new system (information processing system 100) based on the operation log for each occupation and stores it in the test log DB 38. In this case, based on the operation log of each doctor, the information processing system 100 also comprehensively extracts operations that the doctor will perform and creates a test pattern. In this case, for example, the order No. in FIG. = Based on the operation log of SHO 111, the upper test pattern of FIG.

  Next, in step S18, the job type operation log acquisition unit 22 determines whether all job types have been specified. If the determination in step S18 is negative, the process returns to step S12.

  Thereafter, the job type operation log acquisition unit 22 identifies job types such as “nurse” and “inspection engineer” (S12), and creates a test pattern based on the operation log of each job type (S16, S18). In this case, for example, as a nurse test pattern, for example, the order number of FIG. = Based on the operation log of SHO 222, a test pattern as shown in FIG. 7B is created. = Based on the operation log of SHO 333, the upper test pattern of FIG. Further, as the test pattern of the inspection engineer, for example, the order number of FIG. = The test pattern in the lower part of FIG. 7A is created based on the operation log of KETS 111. For example, the order number of FIG. = The test pattern in the lower part of FIG. 8 is created based on the operation log of GAN333. In this process, when it can be determined that there is a relationship between the test patterns based on the “order No.” in FIG. 5 and FIG. There may be a test pattern created based on an operation log having the same last three digits. In such a case, since these test patterns are test patterns corresponding to cooperative operations, they are handled as a series of test patterns as shown in FIG. 7A and FIG. The test patterns are stored together in the test pattern DB 26.

  Thereafter, when the determination in step S18 is affirmed, that is, at the stage where all the occupations are specified, the test pattern creation device 20 ends all the processes in FIG.

(Processing of test terminal 30)
Next, the process of the test terminal 30 will be described in detail along the flowchart of FIG.

  In the process of FIG. 13, first, in step S <b> 30, the input reception unit 32 waits until an input of a test start instruction is received. When the tester inputs a test start instruction via the input unit 195 of the test terminal 30, the process proceeds to step S <b> 32, and the test execution unit 34 acquires one test pattern from the test pattern DB 26 of the test pattern creation device 20. To do. Here, for example, it is assumed that a test pattern as shown in FIG.

  Next, in step S34, the test execution unit 34 executes a test using the acquired test pattern. In this case, the test execution unit 34 uses an automatic test tool.

  For example, it is assumed that the test execution unit 34 has executed the test pattern test shown in FIG. In this case, as shown in FIG. 9, it is tested in order one by one whether the operation of the test pattern of FIG. In the test results of FIG. 9, all the operations in the doctor's outpatient prescription are “OK”, but in the operation in the blood test of the laboratory technician, when the operation of selecting the “HbA1c” item is performed, “NG” : The laboratory technician does not have the blood test order tool authority and the tool cannot be started. ", Indicating that the test result failed.

  On the other hand, FIG. 10 shows an example of the test result when the test execution unit 34 executes the test pattern test shown in FIG. FIG. 10 shows that all the operations in the outpatient prescription of the nurse are “OK”.

  FIG. 11 shows an example of the test result when the test execution unit 34 executes the test pattern test shown in FIG. In FIG. 11, in the test of the outpatient prescription test by the nurse “pressing the confirm button when the requesting doctor is not selected” and the operation “pressing the confirm button”, “NG: Order even if the nurse has not selected the requesting doctor” It can be issued ". In addition, in FIG. 11, in the test of the fundus examination performed by the laboratory technician, “Press the confirm button”, “NG: The confirm button cannot be pressed. The button may not exist in the screen file” It is shown.

  Next, in step S36, it is determined whether or not the test execution unit 34 has executed all the tests, that is, whether or not all the tests using the test patterns stored in the test pattern DB 26 have been completed. If the determination in step S36 is negative, the process returns to step S32. On the other hand, if the determination in step S36 is affirmative, the process proceeds to step S38.

  When the process proceeds to step S38, the display processing unit 36 refers to the test log DB 38 and displays the test contents and test results that are judged as NG on the display unit 193. In the present embodiment, the display processing unit 36 displays the test logs of FIGS. 9 and 11 on the display unit 193, for example. As a result, the person in charge of the test can check the system error, and the cause of the error can be identified by referring to the “test result” in the test log. With the above processing, all the processing in FIG. 13 is completed.

  As described above in detail, according to the present embodiment, the job type operation log acquisition unit 22 stores an operation log (operation log) of a user operation on another system in association with the job type of the user. The operation log for each job type is acquired (S14), and the test pattern creation unit 24 creates a test pattern for the information processing system 100 based on the acquired operation log for each job type (S16). As a result, since the operation patterns at the hospital where the information processing system 100 is introduced are appropriately extracted from the past operation logs, a pattern that may be operated after the information processing system 100 is operated is efficiently created. can do. In this case, since the system developer or the like does not have to create a test pattern, labor costs and the like can be reduced. In addition, by performing a test using this test pattern, a pattern that may be operated after the information processing system 100 is operated can be tested in advance, so that a failure can be prevented from being discovered after the system is operated. be able to. According to the simulation by the present inventor, by performing a test using a test pattern created from the operation log for each job type, the developer discovers about 18.5% before operating the information processing system 100. In addition to the above problems, it has been found that 57.8% of problems previously discovered by end users can be improved before the system is introduced.

  In this embodiment, when users of a plurality of job types operate the old system in cooperation with each other, the job type operation log acquisition unit 22 acquires the history of cooperation operations performed by users of a plurality of job types, and performs a test. The pattern creation unit 24 creates a test pattern for the information processing system 100 based on the acquired cooperation operation history. Thereby, in the information processing system 100, it is possible to confirm whether the orders can be correctly linked between the respective job types.

  In the above-described embodiment, when a test pattern creation instruction is input from the person in charge of the test (S10: Yes), a case has been described in which test patterns for all job types are created from operation logs for all job types. It is not limited to this. For example, the test pattern creation device 20 may execute a process as shown in FIG. That is, when the person in charge of the test designates a specific job type and inputs a test pattern creation instruction, that is, when job type designation information is input to the job type operation log acquisition unit 22 (step S110 in FIG. 14). (Yes), the job type operation log acquisition unit 22 acquires the operation log of the specified job type (S114), and the test pattern generation unit 24 generates a test pattern based on the acquired operation log (S116). You may do it.

  In the above embodiment, the case where the job type operation log acquisition unit 22 accesses the log master 16 of another system and acquires the job type log has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this. That is, the job type operation log acquisition unit 22 may acquire data of the log master 16 of another system in advance. In this case, the data of the log master 16 of another system may be acquired in advance via a storage medium or the like, or may be acquired via a network or the like.

  In the above embodiment, when the test terminal 30 holds a new system modification content storage DB as shown in FIG. 15, the test may be executed using the DB. For example, the test execution unit 34 may create and test only a part of the test pattern that is not changed between the new system (information processing system 100) and the old system (other system). Alternatively, the test execution unit 34 may create and test only a test pattern of a part that has changed from the old system (another system) in the new system (the information processing system 100). In the former case, it is possible to efficiently check an error that occurs when the same operation as that of the old system is performed when the system is packaged. On the other hand, in the latter case, an error that occurs when the user performs the same operation as that of the old system (another system) can be efficiently confirmed in the changed portion.

  In the above-described embodiment, the case where the test pattern based on the job-specific operation log is used in the test performed before the system introduction is described. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, a test may be performed using a test pattern created based on job type operation logs at the time of defect correction after system introduction.

  It should be noted that the system configuration (FIG. 2) when executing the test is an example. For example, the user terminal 50 and the server 10 may have the functions of the test terminal 30 and the test pattern creation device 20.

  The above processing functions can be realized by a computer. In that case, a program describing the processing contents of the functions that the processing apparatus should have is provided. By executing the program on a computer, the above processing functions are realized on the computer. The program describing the processing contents can be recorded on a computer-readable recording medium (except for a carrier wave).

  When the program is distributed, for example, it is sold in the form of a portable recording medium such as a DVD (Digital Versatile Disc) or a CD-ROM (Compact Disc Read Only Memory) on which the program is recorded. It is also possible to store the program in a storage device of a server computer and transfer the program from the server computer to another computer via a network.

  The computer that executes the program stores, for example, the program recorded on the portable recording medium or the program transferred from the server computer in its own storage device. Then, the computer reads the program from its own storage device and executes processing according to the program. The computer can also read the program directly from the portable recording medium and execute processing according to the program. Further, each time the program is transferred from the server computer, the computer can sequentially execute processing according to the received program.

  The above-described embodiment is an example of a preferred embodiment of the present invention. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
