摘要:
In an arrangement for testing multiple low-end computing devices simultaneously, different tests are executed simultaneously on different platforms using a single instance of a test harness to which multiple devices are connected. A platform-specific API is provided for independent components of the tests and platform-specific components are implemented for each test according to the respective platform-specific API. At run-time the test harness deploys each test together with a platform-specific execution agent, configured according to the components of the test. The agents execute the test suites, and return test results to the test harness.

摘要:
A mechanism has been developed for transforming different test suites, written for different test harnesses, into a common XML-type format that can be read by one test harness. Thus differences in the structure of the test suites is transparent to the test harness. To implement this mechanism, a component has been developed that parses XML descriptors and provides an API to the test harness.
摘要:
A test execution system has a central repository that contains a management unit, available test suites and a single test execution harness. Using the management unit, a system administrator establishes active versions of the various test suites, and their individual configurations. End users install clients of the central repository, using a system-provided installer program. In the client, an execution script is created, which downloads the harness and a local configuration file. Then, when the harness is executed at the client, it loads with all designated test suites already installed, configured and ready for execution. The client always has the most current versions of all test suites. All necessary information is obtained from a single central location.

Computing devices are tested by providing a suite of test programs on a server for execution by a plurality of identical computing devices that are coupled to the server. A respective unique identifier is assigned to each of the plurality of the computing devices, for use in communicating with the server. The test programs are downloaded from the server for execution by the computing devices coupled thereto, so that at different computing devices execute different test programs substantially simultaneously. The server receives messages from the computing devices with respect to execution of the test programs, each of the messages containing the respective unique identifier, and controls the execution of the test programs in the suite based on the messages. The server dynamically distributes the test programs to a changing population of the computing devices, optimizing the distribution so as to minimize the time to complete the suite.
摘要:
A method for testing functionality on a JAVA enabled device is provided. The method includes downloading a test to the JAVA enabled device from a management unit having access to the test. The management unit is connected with a partner device polling the management unit. A message is forwarded from the JAVA enabled device to the partner device through the management unit. The expected content of the message is forwarded from the JAVA enabled device to the partner device, through the management unit. The message is then compared to the expected content. A system and a graphical user interface are also included.

A respective unique identifier is assigned to each of the plurality of the computing devices, for use in communicating with the server. The test programs are downloaded from the server for execution by the computing devices coupled thereto, so that at least first and second computing devices among the plurality execute different first and second test programs from the suite substantially simultaneously. The server receives messages from the computing devices with respect to execution of the test programs, each of the messages containing the respective unique identifier, and controls the execution of the test programs in the suite based on the messages.
