Array substrate, display module, testing method for display module, display panel

An array substrate, comprising:

• a plurality of repeating units arranged in a first direction, each repeating unit comprising a plurality of connection areas and a plurality of shared testing areas arranged in an alternating manner in a row along the first direction,
• wherein:
• each of the plurality of shared testing areas is between two adjacent connection areas and coupled to each of the two adjacent connection areas, and
• each of the plurality of shared testing areas comprises a plurality of testing pads, a first portion of the plurality of testing pads being coupled to one of the two adjacent connection areas, a second portion of the plurality of testing pads being coupled to the other one of the two adjacent connection areas;
• at least one repeating unit comprises a terminal testing area that is provided at an end of the row and that is coupled to a single adjacent connection area;
• each of the plurality of connection areas comprises a plurality of connection terminals, at least a portion of the plurality of connection terminals being coupled to corresponding testing pads in one of the plurality of shared testing areas;
• connection terminals coupled to the terminal testing area are insulated from connection terminals coupled to the plurality of shared testing areas;
• the array substrate further comprises a plurality of leads coupled to at least a portion of the plurality of connection terminals, and the plurality of leads extend in a second direction that intersects with the first direction;
• at least a first portion of the leads are gate drive lines, and only connection terminals coupled to the terminal testing area are coupled to the gate drive lines;
• and
• the terminal testing area, the plurality of shared testing areas, and the plurality of connection areas are arranged in the row along the first direction.
