Problems solved by technology

This test method on the actual target platform (Target) is often limited by the test environment, and it is difficult to simulate many situations that may occur in actual operation or some special situations, and the test cases are very limited.
And during the test, the testers generally need to stay at the test site most of the time to observe the running results

Abstract

This invention relates to a embedded software test program including the following steps: 1. coding test background program capable if generating or dispatching testing routine library 2. the background program sends down the testing routine via its communication port 3. adding pile programs in the test software which processes received testing routine data by the pile programs and presets data and state needed to be collected from surrounding hardware ports 4. the pile program collects operation results of the test software and feed it back to the background 5. the background computer compares the routine operation result with that of the preset to be counted and displayed.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a computer software, and more specifically to a testing method of the computer software. Background technique [0002] Embedded software is software that runs on a specific target system, and its hardware platform and operating system are often dedicated and not universal, such as software used in switches, firewalls, mobile phones, PDAs, and smart home appliances. At present, the test of embedded software generally adopts cross-test (Cross-test), which uses the portability of high-level languages ​​to transfer most of the work to the host platform (Host). In this way, the bottleneck of the target system can be avoided, without the need to use an online simulator. A small part of the software closely related to the target hardware is still tested on the target platform through an online emulator / debugger. For the test of some embedded software, it cannot be transplanted or transplanted to the computer ...
