Abstract

A computer implemented method for creating a test setup for automatically testing a topology and/or configuration of a process automation network includes communicating intents containing a definition of communication connections between communication endpoints and connection specifications between the communication endpoints are received. Topology information of the network to be tested is received and analyzed. Test cases for each of the at least one communication intents are generated by generating a configuration for at least one traffic generator and a configuration for at least one traffic analyzer using the selected communication intents and the topology information. The at least one test case is deployed to test facilities on which test functions are to be run using the traffic generator and traffic analyzer, and the test functions are configured. The process automation network is configured to receive data from traffic generator and provide data to the traffic analyzer.
