ATCA Tester v 2.2.5

The ATCA Tester v 2.2 is an automated software tool testing the Hardware Platform Management Software and IPMC Firmware Upgradation implementation in ATCA & AMC based building-blocks or systems.
It is designed for Hardware manufacturers, System Integrators and Telecom Equipment Manufacturers who wish to reduce the time and resources spent on ATCA, AMC and Hardware Platform Management (HPM) testing and interoperability issues during the development and qualification of building-blocks or during system integration. The tester also helps meet interoperability and certification requirements of their systems for compliance with the ATCA certification suite.

124 Test scenarios based on
1.ATCA Interoperability Workshops scenarios
2.PICMG® 3.0 R2.0 specification (including ECN-002)
3.AMC.0 R2.0 specification
4.IPMI 1.5 specification
5.PICMG® HPM.1 Specification

Test categories
* IPMC
* FRU
* MMC
* Carrier IPMC
* Sensor
* Shelf manager
* Shelf
* Network
* HPM

Available on Linux x86

�� Tools included:
~ FRU / SDR / E-Keying Dump: Dump data from any IPMI controller in raw or interpreted format

AtcaTest3

The AtcaTest3 is an automated test suite or testing the Hardware Platform Management HPM) implementation in ATCA platforms. It is based on the PICMG 3.0 Rev 3.0 ATCA base specification and the CP-TA ICD (Interoperability Compliance Document) and TPM (Test Procedures Manual) v 3.0. The Tester is designed for Hardware manufacturers, System Integrators and Telecom Equipment Manufacturers, who wish to reduce the time and resources spent on ATCA, AMC and HPM testing during the development and qualification of building blocks or during system integration. The Tester helps to ensure that ATCA systems meet the compliance and certification requirements of CP-TA’s ATCA certification program.

More than 375 Test scenarios based on:
->CP-TA ICD and TPM v 3.0
->ATCA Interoperability Workshops scenarios
->PICMG 3.0 Rev 3.0
->IPMI 1.5

Test Categories:
->IPMC Tests
->FRU Tests
->Shelf Tests
->Network Tests
->HPM Tests

Useful for testing different types of management controllers.

Complete Decode of IPMI / RMCP packets sent or received during the test execution.

Test scripts are available in source code form and are fully editable.
