1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- upon the occurrence of a computer-related event, comparing code utilized by one or more subsystems included within a scalable test platform to code available from a remote location, wherein the scalable test platform includes a PCIe-based event fabric, one or more CPU subsystems coupled to the PCIe-based event fabric and configured to execute an automated test process, and one or more instrument subsystems coupled to the PCIe-based event fabric and configured to interface one or more devices under test;
if the code available from the remote location is newer than the code utilized by the one or more subsystems, obtaining the code available from the remote location, thus defining newer code; and
updating the code utilized by the one or more subsystems with the newer code.

Abstract
A method, computer program product, and computing system for, upon the occurrence of a computer-related event, comparing code utilized by one or more subsystems included within a scalable test platform to code available from a remote location. If the code available from the remote location is newer than the code utilized by one or more subsystems, the code available from the remote location is obtained, thus defining newer code. The code utilized by one or more subsystems is updated with the newer code.
