Patent ID: 8117430

Claim:
A boot test system, which is used for performing a cold boot test on at least one target computer, comprising: a host computer, which controls the target computer to power on or power off, and outputs a power-on signal and a power-off signal to the target computer based on a feedback signal; and an autorun module, which is installed in the target computer, and outputs the feedback signal to the host computer when the target computer is powered on; wherein the autorun module outputs the feedback signal to the host computer when the cold boot test on the target computer is normal, and the autorun module is configured not to output the feedback signal to the host computer when the cold boot test on the target computer is abnormal; wherein the host computer further comprises a signal generating module, which is used to output the power-on signal and the power-off signal to a power switch in the target computer, and a control module, which controls the signal generating module to output the power-on signal allowing for the target computer to boot, and, after the target computer boots, determines whether the feedback signal is received, and when the feedback signal is received and a number of computer boots of the target computer has not reached a predetermined number, the control module first controls the signal generating module to output the power-off signal to shut down the target computer, and controls the signal generating module to output the power-on signal to enable a next booting of the target computer.
