Abstract

A cold boot test system and method can control an electronic device to perform a cold boot process to test whether the electronic device is operable. The method sets time parameters for a test period of the cold boot process, drives a data communication interface of a computer to generate a period control signal according to the time parameters, and sends the period control signal to a controller via the data communication interface. The method further transfers the period control signal to the electronic device by controlling a power switch to switch on and switch off, controls the electronic device to execute the cold boot process to generate test information correspondingly. In addition, the method obtains the test information from the electronic device, and displays the test information on a display screen of the computer upon the condition that the cold boot process is abnormal.
