Test Strategy Development
Standardize where practical to lower costs
Use common hardware and software test platform for
multiple products
Develop efficient process to create tests for new
products
Ensure test stations are appropriately efficient and
rugged
Validate test stations to ensure they perform as
specified
concept to customer solutions
6. Solution Sources Programming, Inc.
Standardized Test Platform
Develop flexible test platforms to test multiple boards &
products
Make it easy to switch testing from one product to
another
Use LabVIEW and TestStand
Build upon existing re-use code library
Use out-of-the-box TestStand features rather than
re-invent the wheel
Build in troubleshooting tools and ways to “test the
tester”
