Abstract
A source computer program for generating object computer programs, referred to as test program sets, for use in operating a particular automatic test equipment unit (ATE). The ATE is useable for testing a variety of electrical equipment type units each of which is referred to with relation to said ATE as a unit under test (UUT). The source program involves (1) having a test engineer, who designs the individual tests, enter the tests graphically at a work station, (2) verifying the match between the entered test design, the ATE capabilities and the UUT description, and (3) having an automatic way of generating a test program for a test program set from the stored semantic content of the graphically entered test design.
