LTS Integrates Automated Testing on all Network Interfaces

http://www.qosmotec.com
Description
Do you still employ a huge team of testers to manually test services or handsets?
Testing consumes about 40% of the software development lifecycle, and 80% of
all tests are regression tests that need to be re-tested with every new release.
Hence, automation of regression tests can achieve significant reductions of
development costs and shorten time to market.
The purpose of LTS is to fully automate your lab tests, controlling commercial or
test mobiles as well as supplementary test equipment, such as the Qosmotec AIS,
protocol analysers or signalling generators, and even the network switches, in a
synchronous test campaign. Test suites are stored in a database and can be
replayed at any time. By controlling hundreds of mobiles, LTS can also be used
as end-to-end load generator.
LTS performs the job of a whole team of testers upon a keypress.
LTS Integrates Automated Testing
on all Network Interfaces
Automate load, stability and regression tests
LTS integrates various means of testing under a common management,
e.g. mobile feature test, handover test, protocol analysis, OSS control etc.
Use your competence in a more efficient way
Shift routine testing to a machine so your engineers
can focus on debugging and testing of new features.
Improve the quality of your test process
Replicating archived test suites on a keypress means you can test
every patch with exact reproducibility and free of human errors.

One Platform, Multiple Applications
Load and stability test
LTS can stress mobile networks on cell level via massive
parallel accessing of voice and data services by real UEs.
Feature & regression test
By executing programmed test scripts, LTS can perform
complex test cases involving multiple test resources;
pass / fail verdicts and alarms are automatically generated.
KPI assessment
LTS can be used to assess quality of service levels by
measuring key performance indicators from call set up
times and data throughput to voice and video quality.
Individual Mobile Screening with Shielded Boxes
Inherent Stability
Qosmotec offers a shielding box with reset solution for inherent system stability. Fitting one mobile each, the shielding
boxes isolate the mobiles from external as well as mutual
radio interference, yet providing access of the mobile RS232,
USB 2.0 and audio lines.
If a mobile should crash during testing, Qosmotec's generic
reset solution automatically hard-resets the mobile via a momentary interrupt of the power supply and subsequent powerup. The reset solution may also replace the mobile battery
which will not survive permanent charging and heavy use.
The reset solution thus does away with permanent outages of
test mobiles and exhausted batteries that plague other end-toend test systems.
