  • Patent number: 7533312
    Abstract: The system and method of the present invention combine multiple tests (15) into a batch and submit the batch for processing to exercise electronic circuits, for example, a managed network (25) such as a wireless network. The system and method insure that tests (15) are timely run by utilization of a batch submit trigger (42). When a test (15) has completed, the system and method return the results (11) of that particular test (15) to the user, regardless of whether or not the rest of the tests (15) in the batch have completed execution.

  • Patent number: 7505419
    Abstract: A system and method to enable balanced resource utilization during testing of a wireless communications network. The system and method determines the properties, including the status, for resources, and stores the properties for later comparison. Utilization information is calculated from the properties and provided to the user based on criteria from user-specified resource filters. Balanced resource utilization is enabled based on the utilization information.
