Abstract

PURPOSE:To automatically execute the test program of a device to be tested and to reduce a trouble for executing a test by providing a test program storage means, a test corresponding table and a tested device connection check means for the device to be tested. CONSTITUTION:When the test device 1 is initialized and starts in the execution of the test program, the connection check means 13 for the device to be tested checks the identification numbers of all the devices to be tested connected to a connection means 16. Then the presence of connection is set in connection information 123 of an identification number equal to that of the connection device to be tested in the test corresponding table 12 and the absence of connection is set in other information 123. Then a test program loading means 14 loads the test program from the test program storage means 11 in accordance with the name of the test program of test program starting parameter information 122 where the presence of connection is set in information 123. Then, a test program execution means 15 starts and executes the test program. Consequently, the test program can automatically be executed and the trouble of the test can be reduced.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a test program execution method, and particularly to a test program automatic execution method.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, when executing a test program, it was necessary to start up the test equipment, manually check the connected devices under test, and execute the test program accordingly.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

In the conventional test program execution method described above, after starting up the test equipment, it is necessary to manually check the connected devices under test and manually start the test program. Therefore, there are disadvantages in that it takes time and effort to start a test program for a device under test that is not connected, or to make wrong startup parameters for the test program.

[Means to solve the problem]

The test program automatic execution method of the present invention provides a test program storage means in which a test program for each of the devices under test is stored, and a test program storage means for each of the devices under test in a test device to which a plurality of different types of devices under test can be connected. a test correspondence table that holds a test program name and information on whether or not the device under test is connected; a device under test connection check means that checks the connection status of the device under test and sets it in the test correspondence table; a test program loading means for loading a test program of the device under test connected based on the table from the test program storage means; and executing the test program loaded by the test program loading means on the target device under test. and test program execution means.

〔Example〕

Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, the test device 1 has N devices under test 21 to
2N and stores test programs for each device under test, and a test correspondence table that holds test program names for each device under test, information on whether or not the device under test is connected, etc. 12
, a device under test connection check means 13 that checks the connected device under test and sets its connection information in the test correspondence table; and a test program for the device under test that is connected to the connection information in the test correspondence table. Test program loading means 14 for loading from the test program storage means
, a test program execution means 15 for executing the test program loaded by the test program loading means on the target device under test, and a connection means 16 for connecting a plurality of different types of devices under test to the test device. It is configured.

FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram showing the contents of the test correspondence table 12. In the same figure, the test correspondence table 12 includes identification information 1
21. Test program startup parameter information 122. Contains connection information 123.

Next, the operation of the test program automatic execution system configured as described above will be explained.

First, the identification numbers of all devices under test that can be connected to the identification information 121 and the test program starting parameter information 122 of the test correspondence table 12 and the corresponding test program names and starting parameters are set, and the test program storage means 11 All test programs are stored in the test device 1, and the devices under test 21 to 2N to be tested are connected to the test device 1.

When the test apparatus 1 is started up, the device under test connection check means 13 first checks the identification numbers of all the devices under test connected to the connection means 16, and checks the identification numbers of the connected devices under test in the test correspondence table 12. Set connection information 123 with the same identification number as the number, and set other connection information 1
23 is set to no connection.

Next, the test program loading means 14 loads the test program from the test program storage means 11 according to the test program name of the test program starting parameter information 122 for which the connection information 123 of the test correspondence table is set to be connected, and the starting parameter is passed to the test program execution means 15. The test program execution means 15 starts and executes the test program loaded by the test program means 14 according to the start parameters.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention provides a test program storage means, a test correspondence table, a device under test connection check means, a test program load means, a test program execution means, and a connection means. Automatically executes the test program of the connected device under test. Therefore, it is no longer necessary to start the test program manually, so there is no need to start a test program for a device under test that is not connected, or to make a mistake in the start parameters of the test program, and the effort required to perform the test is also reduced. be.
