Configuring for remote testing
The following sections describe how to configure and run the software
required on both the Client and Server, to run tests from a remote PC using the
TestDriver. The Server resides inside the TestDriver and is installed with the
TestDriver.
System requirements
When setting up your Client-Server configuration in order to run tests
from a remote PC over a WAN or LAN, you must have the required hardware and
software set up on the system. For details, see
PC and device requirements.
Configuring the Client side
Each PC client used must have the TestDriver installed.
Configuring the Server side
The PC to be used for running tests must have TestDriver and TestMaster
installed on it. The TestMaster is installed with the TestDriver. For more
information on installing the TestDriver, refer to
Installing the TestDriver.
Configuring the TestMaster
Before running the TestMaster complete the following settings using
the config
command:
testDriver config --server <host_name> --service <service_name> --jobs <jobs_folder> --srv remote_serv --port flushing_port -t transport
Where you must set the name of the remote server and service, remote
target test port, test job to be run, and so on.
For example:
TestDriver config --server lon-test01 --service RemoteTD --jobs c:\jobs --port 2 --t serial3
This sets the name of the remote server and service, remote target
test port and test job to be executed. For more details, refer to
Command reference.
Running TestMaster
Run the TestMaster using the following command:
>testDriver master
If the TestMaster is running correctly, the following output is
displayed:
TestMaster starting up...
Host: YourServerHostName
RMI Service: RemoteTestDriver
Executor: Waiting for a job.
TestMaster running.
Note: WinTap must not be running on the server side when
remote testing is in process.
