Designing Tests with MultiPurpose TestWare

MultiPurpose TestWare (MPT) is a powerful and flexible application that enables
you to quickly and easily define complex test designs.

Defining parameters.
This diagram shows
examples of parameters
assigned to individual
processes. This defines
test levels.

MPT allows you to
create complex test
designs with discrete
processes. Each
process represents an
individual test activity.
This diagram shows
how a test waveform
may correlate to
individual process icons.

Sequencing test
activities
. This diagram
shows how each
process is sequenced to
achieve test objectives.
For instance, the timed
data acquisition process
(icon with clock)
executes in parallel to
the cyclic command
process.
