Abstract: Modern high-end technology products such as aircraft consist of a number of individual systems that are controlled by independent electronic control units and increasingly interconnected. According to one exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a test system assembly for testing several such systems for an aircraft in parallel is disclosed, wherein a master network is provided in order to exchange data between the individual test systems and a control unit, and wherein original electrical wiring is provided between the test systems in order to directly interconnect the tested systems. The flexibility of system tests for aircraft may be increased in this fashion.
