Planning System Testplans
Testplans are used by Agilent TestExec SL and the other system software to
run tests using the Agilent TS-5400 System. Use the information in this
chapter to help you plan testplans for your tests. This chapter is separated as
follows:
The steps of the testplan planning and fixturing process are:
• Planning The Tests . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . page 51
• Planning The Resources And Fixture . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . page 54
It is assumed that your system has been configured and setup at the factory
with all the appropriate test instruments.
The process and tools for actually developing and fine tuning the test are
documented in the Agilent TestExec SL User's Guide and the on-line help.
These tools include test libraries, action libraries, the Switching
Configuration Editor, the Switch Path Editor, and the Action Definition
Editor.
Planning The Tests
For each test or each type of test required by the test specifications, complete
a Test Description Worksheet. Figure 3-1 shows an example Test
Description Worksheet for a simple input leakage test on a module input pin.
In many cases there is more than one way to perform a test. For example, to
test injector outputs you can use a counter to measure timing and the Digital
Multimeter to measure voltage, or you can use a digitizer and analyze the
results for both measurements. Which test strategy you choose depends on
your measurement resources and test execution time trade-offs.
