Abstract: The invention provides a computer implemented method for test of a control system for a logistics system. The method comprises testing (TST1, TST2) one or more low level control (LLC) software parts by simultaneously emulating a high level (HLE) response, emulating a low level emulating (LLE) response, and interfacing (INF) said HLE and low level emulation LLE. The interfacing (INF) of the HLE and LLE, comprises two-way exchanging a plurality of parameters (P) indicative of items to be handled in the logistics system between the HLE and the LLE. With such interfacing of a HLE for testing of a high level control (HLC) software of the logistics system, and the LLE for, it is possible to provide a realistic test and tuning of LLC software parts, e.g. Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) code, before the physical elements of a complex logistics system is built, e.g. an airport baggage handling system. This can reduce time and costs involved in final testing and tuning of parameters in the LLC software parts on-site, when the total system has been built.
