Problems solved by technology

[0006] 1. It can only be used to build test sequences, and the specific test steps still need to be implemented through programming. For example, simple file IO operations require external programming;
[0007] 2. There are few types of software modules that can be called through adapters, mainly including LabVIEW VI, CVI DLL, C / C++ DLL, .NET, ActiveX and HTBasic, etc. For scripting languages ​​that are biased towards network testing, such as TCL and Python, etc. It can only be called indirectly through the "Call Executable" method, and the parameter passing is not flexible;
[0008] 3. Unable to support GUI automation

Embodiment 1

[0081] see figure 1 , the present invention discloses a system 10 capable of creating automatic test cases for various complex hardware devices without programming. Hardware device testing may involve various tools and methods, and the system includes a test logic module 11 , a general tool module 12 , an external program calling module 13 , a network protocol module 14 and a GUI automation module 15 .

[0082] 【Test logic module】

[0083] The test logic module 11 includes tools for implementing various test logics, such as loop structure 111 , condition judgment structure 112 , parallel structure 113 , waiting 114 , event trigger 115 and so on. These tools are used to implement various test logics and combine tools in other modules into a complete test process.

[0084] The loop structure 111 is used to implement steps that require loops in the test process. It can be divided into two types: the loop with a certain number of loops - just set the number of loops; it is nece...

Embodiment 2

[0116] This embodiment introduces the present invention by taking the TD-LTE (fourth generation mobile communication) base station vector magnitude error test as an example.

[0117] The testing process is as follows:

[0118] Use case description: Verify that the EVM of the eNodeB's transmitted signal complies with the regulations

[0119] Testing process:

[0120] 1) Configure the carrier frequency point, the center frequency is 2350MHz;

[0121] 2) Start eNodeB to work in E-TM3.1 mode and transmit with maximum power;

[0122] 3) Use the LTE spectrum analyzer to test the PDSCH EVM whose modulation mode is 64QAM;

[0123] 4) Change the downlink signal mode to E_TM3.2, and test the PDSCH EVM whose modulation mode is 16QAM;

[0124] 5) Change the downlink signal mode to E_TM3.3, and test the PDSCH EVM whose modulation mode is QPSK;

[0125] 6) Change the downlink signal mode to E_TM2, and test the PDSCH EVM whose modulation mode is 64QAM;

[0126] 7) Configure the carrier...
