Modular instrumentation systems for automated test

A current trend in increasing complexity of devises under test and in mutual penetration of technologies stimulates the increasing flexibility of testing systems. The use of programmable modular architecture allows to develop a test system that can adapt to changes of test objects over time while having long life cycle. This article presents the concept based on software configurable virtual measuring instruments, describes the variety of hardware platforms and software and reveals the properties of modular systems that makes them ideally suited for solving test automation problems.
