1. A testing system for use in conducting testing of a structure, comprising:
- a testing device configured to perform electromagnetic testing, wherein the testing device comprises;
a presentation interface comprising an electronic display device;
a user input interface;
a memory device;
at least one sensor configured to acquire a plurality of field voltage and current measurement associated with the structure; and
a processor coupled in communication with the presentation interface, the user input interface, and the memory device, the processor programmed to cause the testing device to;
retrieve at least one demonstrative instruction for conducting a test session for preforming the electromagnetic testing using the testing device from a base computing device via a network upon receiving an input via the user input interface;
present to a user, via the presentation interface, data comprising the at least one demonstrative instruction;
present, via the presentation interface, at least one test instruction for use of the testing device, wherein the at least one test instruction comprises text regarding conducting the test session using the testing device; and
simultaneously present, via the presentation interface, exemplary simulated data associated with the test session and live data associated with the test session, wherein the exemplary simulated data and the live data comprise the plurality of field voltage and current measurements associated with the structure and wherein the simulated data and the live data are depicted side-by-side.

Abstract
A testing system for use in conducting testing of a structure, and a method for configuring a testing system are provided. The testing system includes a testing device that includes a presentation interface, a user input interface, a memory device and a processor coupled in communication with the presentation interface, the user input interface, and the memory device. The processor causes the testing device to present to a user, prior to a test session, at least one demonstrative instruction for conducting a test session using the testing device, and at least one test instruction for use while the user is conducting a test session using the device.
