Abstract :
A system for testing VMEbus and Multibus II products is described. The system is mainly automated to reduce costs and ensure impartiality. A test campaign is explained in the sense of a walk through the test system, in the way of a customer-such as a manufacturer, reseller, or original equipment manufacturer-would see it. The focus is on testing bus interfaces because it is more complex than testing backplanes.<>
