Abstract
The one or more processors of an electronic device execute program code. While executing the program code, measurements are performed on the electronic device to obtain first data. Further, execution of the program code is monitored to obtain second data, e.g., debug information. The measurements are coordinated with the monitoring of the execution of the program code.
Claims15
A method for testing an electronic device, the method comprising:
- while program code is executed by one or more processors of the electronic device, performing measurements, by a test equipment on the electronic device to obtain first data;
- receiving, by the test equipment from a debug interface of the electronic device, debug information from monitoring execution of the program code;
- deriving, by the test equipment, second data from the debug information;
- and
- coordinating, by the test equipment, the measurements with the monitoring execution of the program code by controlling the measurements depending on the second data.
2 more elements
An apparatus for testing an electronic device, the apparatus comprising:
- at least one sensor configured to obtain first data by performing measurements on the electronic device while program code is being executed by one or more processors of the electronic device;
- a debug interface configured to monitor execution of the program code to obtain second data;
- and
- a measurement controller configured to coordinate the measurements with monitoring of the execution of the program code by controlling the measurements depending on the second data.
