Embodiment Construction

[0033] For the sake of reference and clarity, the following first briefly introduces the upper computer.

[0034] The upper computer refers to the computer that the operator can directly issue control commands, usually a PC, and various signal changes (hydraulic pressure, water level, temperature, etc.) are displayed on the screen. The upper computer needs to be programmed and has a special development platform.

[0035] When performing automated testing on the hardware under test, especially when testing chips with programmable functions, it is necessary to download the corresponding hardware driver program written by the user or provided by the manufacturer in the host computer to the hardware under test in order to make the hardware under test Respond to the stimulus of the automatic test system, and output the response corresponding to the stimulus, and then realize the functional test of the hardware. In the prior art, although the way of automatically downloading the dri...

Abstract

The invention discloses an automatic hardware testing method and an automatic hardware testing system. The method includes: after a testing management software running instruction transmitted by a user is received, running testing management software; after a testing program executing instruction is received, reading codes corresponding to the testing program to execute the testing program, wherein the testing program of tested hardware is developed in the testing management software; automatically running download software during testing program execution; using a simulating key for operating and controlling the download software so that the download software controls a downloader to execute a preselected downloader executing instruction, and download of a drive program is completed; and using the downloaded drive program to complete automatic testing of the tested hardware. Compared with the prior art, the automatic hardware testing method has the advantages that when faced with a great variety of small-batch tested hardware, the method can complete automatic testing of the tested hardware without developing multiple sets of download software, and accordingly development cost is extremely low, and the testing cycle of the batched tested hardware is shortened.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of automatic testing, in particular to a hardware automatic testing method and system. Background technique [0002] A hardware driver is a special program that enables a computer to communicate with a device. It is equivalent to a hardware interface through which the operating system controls the work of the hardware device. For example, if the driver of a device is not installed correctly, will not work properly. [0003] When performing automated testing on certain hardware under test, especially when testing chips with programmable functions, it is necessary to download the corresponding hardware driver program written by the user or provided by the manufacturer in the host computer to the hardware under test in order to use The hardware under test responds to stimuli from the automated test system and outputs the corresponding responses to the stimuli. In the absence of hardware drivers, it will be im...
