Abstract

This application relates to apparatus and methods for automatically configuring devices under test to allow for the loading of software, such as firmware and applications, onto the devices under test. In one example, a testing system includes a testing frame with multiple cabinets. Each cabinet houses a device, such as a smartphone. The testing system also includes a testing computer communicatively coupled to the devices, such as through a USB connection. The testing computer may receive, from a database, workflow data for each type of device. The workflow data characterizes a workflow to follow to configure each type of device. For each device, the testing computer determines human interface device (HID) actions based on the workflow data corresponding to the device. Further, the testing computer transmits the corresponding HID actions to each device, causing the devices to perform one or more configuration operations to allow for the loading of software.
