First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for generating testing and diagnosis procedures for vehicle diagnosis, the method comprising:
- determining if a first procedure remains to be performed;
if a first procedure remains to be performed, then determining whether;
there is a second procedure dependent on the first procedure;
orthe first procedure can run in parallel to the second procedure;
if there is a second procedure dependent on the first procedure, then performing the first procedure;
if the first procedure can run in parallel to the second procedure, then performing the first procedure; and
determining if the second procedure remains to be performed.

Abstract
A diagnostic tool and a computer-implemented method for generating testing and diagnosis procedures for vehicle diagnosis include determining if a first procedure remains to be performed, if a first procedure remains to be performed, then determining whether: there is a second procedure dependent on the first procedure, or the first procedure can run in parallel to the second procedure, if there is a second procedure dependent on the first procedure, then performing the first procedure, if the first procedure can run in parallel to the second procedure, then performing the first procedure, and determining if the second procedure remains to be performed.
