The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for constructing a tactical datalink software test environment, and more particularly, to a method and apparatus for integrally managing a configuration of a tactical datalink software test environment that changes frequently.

The tactical data link software is composed of a host device performing a role of an actual system system and a terminal device performing data link interworking. The terminal device and the host device are connected to a medium such as Ethernet and MIL-STD-1553B to perform interworking. In addition, the emulator software that simulates the terminal device is connected to another emulator one-to-one or one-to-many interworking with the network simulation software using the Ethernet interface-based Standard Interface For Multiple Platform Link Evaluation (SIMPLE) protocol. The characteristics of the tactical datalink software test can be changed according to the test object or setting values. Therefore, the connection medium between the host device and the terminal device, the object to which the terminal device is linked with SIMPLE, the existence of network simulation software supporting one-to-many linking, and the number of test configuration nodes may vary according to each test.

At present, Tactical Data Link software has to set connection setting of each software individually for this setting, and this setting procedure is required for each test even when repeating the same test. Therefore, unnecessary work of the tester is repeated, which increases the possibility of a test error due to a setting error. The test preparation time also increases in proportion to the number of configuration nodes.

4 is a flowchart illustrating a method of configuring a tactical datalink software test environment according to an embodiment of the present invention in terms of daemon modules.

The daemon module 230 is a background operation program installed on a terminal (or node) basis. The daemon module 230 obtains the system information of the node constituting the test environment, whether the test target software is installed, and the version information, and provides the master module 120 with the information. Perform the function. In addition, according to the software control message of the master module 120 performs the drive and termination of the test target software installed in the node.

 The daemon module 230 is automatically initialized and executed in the background when the system operating system of the corresponding terminal device (or node) is driven (S410). Daemon module 230 includes Ethernet node configuration status (registered IP list and MAC address list), MIL-STD-1553B card configuration status (card information list, channel information list, etc.), serial port list information, and node of the node. Collect the list and version information of the test target software installed in the (S420). When the daemon module 230 receives the master module status message (S430), the daemon module 230 stores information about the corresponding master module 120 (S440), and the terminal status message including the information obtained in step S420 by the master module 120. Transmit (S450). The transmission of the terminal status message may be performed every predetermined period (for example, 5 seconds), and in this case, the collection of the system information of the node and the information about the test target software (S420) may also be performed at the predetermined period.

The daemon module 230 may receive a software control message including a command for controlling the execution of the test target software from the master module 120 (S460). In this case, the test target software specified in the received message may be transferred to the control command. Drive or terminate accordingly (S470).

5 is a flowchart illustrating a method of configuring a tactical datalink software test environment according to an embodiment of the present invention from the side of a slave module.

The slave module 220 receives a master module status message upon initialization. When the master module status message is received (S505), the slave module 220 is connected to the communication between the software status message and the test target software including information on the execution status of the test target software installed in the terminal device (node). The communication status message including the related information is transmitted to the master module 120 (S510). The transmission of the software status message and the communication status message may be performed at predetermined intervals, for example, at one second intervals.

The slave module 220 provides a function of receiving and processing a communication connection setting message received from the master module 120 (S530 to S540). As described above, the master module 120 transmits communication connection setting information for setting a new test environment determined based on the system information collected through the daemon module 230 to the slave module 220. When the slave module 220 receives the communication connection establishment message from the master module 120 (S530), it establishes the communication connection of the corresponding test target software according to the information in the received connection establishment message (S535). The communication connection setting operation of the test target software may be performed by the slave module 220, and information about the communication connection is transferred to the slave application 210 corresponding to the slave module 220, so that the slave application 210 transmits the information. May be performed. In this case, the communication connection establishment process result is returned from the slave application 210. The communication connection setting processing result is transmitted to the master module 120 using the response message (S540).

 The slave module 220 provides a function of storing log data related to the test target software and transmitting the log data to the master module 120 (S545 and S550). The slave module 220 may collect log data related to the test target software and store it in a local file (S545). The collection of log data may be performed by the slave module 220 or may be performed by the slave application 210. In this case, the slave application 210 transmits log data to the slave module 220. The stored log data is transmitted to the master module 120, and may be transmitted at a predetermined cycle, for example, at 1 second intervals (S550). The transfer of log data can lead to huge data use depending on the test environment configuration. Therefore, the transmission of the log data can be set using the configuration file.

In addition, the slave module 220 may receive a command message described in the fifth table [Table 1] from the master module 120 (S515). When the slave module 220 receives a command message from the master module 120, the slave module 220 identifies a command that the master module 120 wants to execute to the test target software through the slave module 220 from the command ID in the message and sends the corresponding command. The test target software may be executed (S520). The slave module 220 may provide the result to the master module 120 through the response message after the execution of the command (S525).
