System and method for automated testing

A system to perform automated testing of a server, the system comprising:

• a controller configured to:
• retrieve a plurality of server tests associated with the server from a database;
• retrieve a first list of material items installed on the server from a controller associated with the server;
• execute each server test of the plurality of server tests to generate a plurality of test results;
• compare the plurality of test results with a plurality of expected results to create a plurality of comparison results;
• store the plurality of test results and the plurality of comparison results in the database;
• generate a test report based on the plurality of test results and the plurality of comparison results;
• and
• terminate the automated testing of the server based on a test completion status and a test completion time recorded at the controller.

A tangible, non-transitory computer-readable medium to perform automated testing of a server, the computer-readable medium having instructions thereon, which, upon being executed by one or more processors, provides for execution of the following steps:

• retrieving a plurality of server tests associated with the server from a database;
• retrieving a first list of material items installed on the server from a controller associated with the server;
• executing each server test of the plurality of server tests to generate a plurality of test results;
• comparing the plurality of test results with a plurality of expected results to create a plurality of comparison results;
• storing the plurality of test results and the plurality of comparison results in the database;
• generating a test report based on the plurality of test results and the plurality of comparison results;
• and
• terminating the automated testing of the server based on a test completion status and a test completion time recorded at the controller.
