Abstract: A method for diagnosing a root cause of failure using automated test equipment (ATE) is disclosed. The method comprises identifying a failing device under test (DUT). Further, the method comprises opening a test program log associated with the failing DUT and determining a time of failure by parsing through the test program log to find an identifier and timestamp associated with the failure. Finally, the method comprises displaying the test program log in a window within a graphical user interface, wherein a relevant section of the test program log associated with the failure is displayed in the window.
