Patent ID: 8918681

Claim:
A test procedure generation apparatus that generates a procedure for testing a device under test, comprising: hardware memory; a test module generation apparatus that generates a procedure for testing the device under test; a test module storing section that stores the test module generated by the test module generation apparatus; a table displaying section that displays a test flow table in which the test module included in the test procedure is allocated to a line of the test flow table; and a test specifying section that, in response to an operation on a test-specifying column to designate the test module in the test flow table, shows a name of the test module in an operated cell in the test flow table, wherein the test specifying section enables a user to select one of a plurality of the test modules and shows a name of the test module in an operated cell in the test flow table, and the test module generation apparatus comprises: a condition file generating section in which a test condition is input and that generates a condition file defining the input test condition; a test method storing section that stores a test method; a test method selecting section that receives, from a user, a selection instruction of the test method adapted to the test module to be generated; a condition file selecting section that receives, from a user, a selection instruction of the condition file corresponding to a parameter which the selected test method requires; and a test module generating section that generates the test module in which a test according to the selected test method is executed with a parameter specified by the condition file.
