1. A method of testing user equipment at a cell-based test system, the method comprising:

  • determining a type of user equipment to be tested at the cell-based test system, wherein the cell-based test system comprises a portable test unit and a computer system coupled to the portable test unit, wherein the portable test unit comprises a shielded box configured to contain the user equipment to be tested, and wherein the computer system is operable for executing software that automatically performs testing on the user equipment;

    accessing a device profile for the type of the user equipment to be tested, wherein the device profile comprises a test script operable for controlling the user equipment during the testing, and wherein the device profile is operable for changing from a first automation mode comprising a command used by a first operating system to a second automation mode comprising a command used by a second, different operating system;

    measuring a characteristic of the cell-based test system using reference user equipment;

    sending, to a server over a network, information comprising a result of said measuring, wherein the information comprising the result is stored at the server;

    receiving the information comprising the result from the server over the network;

    using the information comprising the result received from the server to calibrate the cell-based test system; and

    performing a test of the user equipment using the portable test unit, wherein during the test the user equipment is controlled according to the device profile in response to the software executing on the computer system.
