Cross-platform test environment automatic setup method and system
First Claim
1. A cross-platform test environment automatic setup method for use on an information platform that is running on a particular kind of operating system, for the purpose of providing the information platform with a cross-platform test environment automatic setup capability to allow a particular test procedure to be capable of being conducted under the operating system on the information platform;
- the cross-platform test environment automatic setup method comprising;
building a parameter database which prestores a number of sets of parameters respectively for a number of different test procedures for setup of a test environment within different kinds of operating systems;
performing a test procedure selecting procedure for user-operated selection of a desired test procedure from a group of test procedures;
detecting the particular kind of the operating system currently installed on the information platform;
retrieving a corresponding set of parameters from the parameter database based on the user-selected test procedure and the detected kind of operating system on the information platform; and
configuring the operating system on the information platform based on the retrieved set of parameters for a test environment to run the user-selected test procedure on the information platform under the operating system.

Abstract
A cross-platform test environment automatic setup method and system is proposed, which is designed for use on an information platform that is running on a particular kind of operating system, for the purpose of providing the information platform with a cross-platform test environment automatic setup capability that allows a particular test procedure to be capable of being conducted under the particular kind of operating system on the information platform. The proposed cross-platform test environment automatic setup method and system is advantageous to use than prior art in that it allows the same test procedure to have a cross-platform capability that allows the same test procedure to be conducted under different operating systems without requiring test engineers to manually configure the required test environment in different operating systems, which allows the testing to be more easily and quickly and thus more efficiently than prior art.
