Method and system for testing assembled mobile devices
First Claim
1. A method for arranging test stages in a production line for the assembling and testing of wireless communications devices, comprising the steps of:
- determining a plurality of tests for testing an assembled wireless communication device, each test in the plurality of tests being one of an interactive test requiring physical actuation or mechanical dynamics to be performed on one or more interactive test components of the assembled wireless communication device, and a non-interactive test requiring no physical actuation or mechanical dynamics to be performed on the assembled wireless communication device;
allocating each interactive test to an interactive test stage in the production line; and
allocating each non-interactive test between the interactive test stage and a non-interactive test stage in the production line.

Abstract
A method and system for testing assembled mobile devices is provided. In accordance with one embodiment, there is provided a method for arranging test stages in a production line for the assembling and testing of wireless communications devices. The method comprises the steps of: determining a plurality of tests for testing an assembled wireless communication device, each test in the plurality of tests being one of an interactive test requiring physical actuation or mechanical dynamics to be performed on one or more interactive test components of the assembled wireless communication device, and a non-interactive test requiring no physical actuation or mechanical dynamics to be performed on the assembled wireless communication device; allocating each interactive test to an interactive test stage in the production line; and allocating each non-interactive test between the interactive test stage and a non-interactive test stage in the production line.

8. A method of testing assembled wireless communications devices in a production line, comprising the steps of:
-
receiving an assembled wireless communications device in the production line for testing in accordance with a plurality of tests comprising;
one or more interactive tests each requiring physical actuation or mechanical dynamics to be performed on one or more interactive test components of the assembled wireless communication device, and one or more non-interactive tests each requiring no physical actuation or mechanical dynamics to be performed on the assembled wireless communication device;performing each of the interactive tests at an interactive test stage in the production line; and performing each of the non-interactive tests at a non-interactive test stage in the production line. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 21)
