Usage Guide

How to use the Test Runner interface for executing hardware tests, viewing results, and managing test sessions.

This guide covers the day-to-day operation of Test Runner for production test execution.

Login#

After powering on the test fixture, you'll encounter a login screen. Login to one of the user accounts using the provided username and password.

See Default Accounts for initial credentials.

Runner Initialization#

After login, the test runner initializes with a progress bar displayed at the center bottom of the screen. Once initialization completes, a notification appears stating "Ready to test."

Running a Test#

Click the START button to begin testing. During test execution, user interaction may be required. When interaction is needed, a notification icon appears in the bottom right of the Slot Card.

You can access the notification by:

  • Clicking on the notification icon directly
  • Scanning the slot's barcode

Slot View#

For single-slot fixtures, clicking Go To Runner displays detailed slot information. This view is preferred when working with single-unit fixtures as it provides comprehensive test data.

Test results appear in a table at the bottom of the screen, showing real-time updates as tests complete.

Viewing Test Results#

Current Session Results#

Test results display in real-time in the results table at the bottom of the slot view. Each measurement shows:

  • Test name
  • Measured value
  • Pass/fail status
  • Limits (if applicable)

Historical Results#

Click Past Runs in the menu to access historical test data. The Past Runs view provides:

  • Status Filtering: Filter results by pass, fail, or all statuses
  • Search: Find specific test runs by serial number or other criteria
  • Detailed View: Click any result to see comprehensive test outcome information

Downloading Results#

Results can be downloaded to a USB drive:

  1. Insert a USB drive into the test station
  2. Navigate to Past Runs
  3. Hover over the download options
