  • Patent number: 5067129
    Abstract: An apparatus automatically generates test programs to test a service processor associated with a computer. The apparatus comprises a knowledge base for mapping screens generated by the service processor, which screens are arranged in a hierarchical manner and comprise menu screens which access other screens lower in the hierarchy and end point screens which represent memory of the computer serviced by the service processor. The apparatus also includes a user interface for selecting at least one screen generated by the service processor, which screen identifies a branch of screens lower in the hierarchy for testing. A program generator is coupled to the user interface and the knowledge base, and identifies from the knowledge base the screens in the branch.
