  • Base protocol layer testing device
    Patent number: 9170905
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to testing of a computing system using a base protocol layer testing device. An aspect includes, based on determining, by the base protocol layer testing device, that a current test comprises a test of a base protocol layer of the computing system, enabling a low level test assist device of the base protocol layer testing device for the current test, wherein the low level test assist device comprises a hardware device that is directly attached to an input/output (I/O) card of the computing system. Another aspect includes storing base protocol layer traffic that passes through the I/O card by the low level test assist device during performance of the current test by the base protocol layer testing device. Yet another aspect includes analyzing the stored base protocol layer traffic after completion of the current test to determine a result of the current test.
    Type: Grant
