Abstract
A testing method of a wavelength-tunable laser having a resonator including wavelength selection portions having wavelength property different from each other includes a first step of controlling the wavelength-tunable laser so as to oscillate at a given wavelength according to an initial setting value, a second step of tuning the wavelength property of the wavelength selection portions and detecting discontinuity point of gain-condition-changing of the wavelength-tunable laser, and a third step of obtaining a stable operating point of the wavelength selection portion according to a limiting point of an oscillation condition at the given wavelength, the limiting point being a point when the discontinuity point is detected.
