TEST-TRACK

Testing software, specially designed for TEST-OK test systems. TEST-TRACK covers all requirements for series production of PCBAs, and also the development, debugging and administration of tests.

Details

TEST-TRACK is a testing software to build and run test scripts, and administrate TEST-OK Modules and board types to test.
All test sessions and results can be traced by a track and trace function
Printing of labels and test results
Support for single and multiple board types and panels
Database support for MySQL and MSSQL
TEST-OK Systems are delivered including TEST-TRACK software.
Extensive filering options, such as First Run Yield, First Session Yield, NOT first run yield etc.

Description

TEST-TRACK software provides a solution to create a functional test by means of a test editor with a proprietary script language. TEST-TRACK offers also a rich set of logistical features typically required in a test environment.

The test sequencer which executes the test scripts, controls the I/O’s of the TCC 1800-UE test controller card that is integrated in the TEST-OK system hardware. There are more than ninety test commands available, including typical structural constructs like variables, arrays, functions, for and while loops, if-statements and more.

The script editor guarantees the development of error-free syntax. Debugging is made easy with the support of breakpoints in the script editor and the real-time manual screen. All TCC 1800-UE in- and outputs, power supplies and communication interfaces are presented and can be adjusted.

Controlling and executing external programs and external test equipment from within a test script is supported. Communication over TCP/IP or a local COM port is possible. The TCC 1800-UE offers programmable power supplies, digital and analogue I/O, communication interfaces such as UART, USB, Ethernet, I2C, SPI and CAN. Test scripts commands are available to control and handle all these interface.

Besides the script editor, TEST-TRACK allows the configuration functional test details, e.g. serial numbers of the UUT, the specific test suite, programming specifications, and the number of boards to be tested.

TEST-TRACK automatically detects the currently placed test module and presents the board types which are open to be tested. The correct scripts and serial number configuration is automatically loaded.

Test results are stored in a database and can be accessed and analyzed via the Track & Trace screen. This screen also provides functions to show and filter results on many criteria, such as test period, pass, fail, number of sessions and test duration. Measurement values are stored as Key Value Pairs, including its limits and comments. Important filters are available to analyze the quality of the test, such as filtering boards on first run yield, first session yield, and number of runs and sessions performed.

A report generator is available in TEST-TRACK for custom test reports and labels with various printing options. It is also possible to export data in CSV and PDF format.

English, German and Dutch versions are available. TEST-TRACK runs on Windows 10/64 bit versions.
