Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer-readable media provide for facility integrity testing. According to embodiments, a method for populating a watch list with circuits of a communications network to be monitored for repeat failures is provided. According to the method, a trouble ticket associated with one of the circuits and a trouble code and analysis code (TC/AC) combination associated with the trouble ticket is retrieved. Whether the trouble ticket meets a watch list criterion is determined. In response to determining that the trouble ticket meets the watch list criterion, the trouble ticket and the TC/AC combination are added to the watch list.
Claims20
A method for populating a watch list with circuits of a communications network to be monitored for repeat failures, comprising:
- retrieving a trouble ticket associated with one of the circuits and a trouble code and analysis code (TC/AC) combination associated with the trouble ticket;
- determining whether the trouble ticket meets a watch list criterion;
- and
- in response to determining that the trouble ticket meets the watch list criterion, adding the trouble ticket and the TC/AC combination to the watch list.
A system for populating a watch list with circuits of a communications network to be monitored for repeat failures, comprising:
- a memory for storing a program containing code for populating a watch list with circuits to be monitored for repeat failures;
- a processor functionally coupled to the memory, the processor being responsive to computer-executable instructions contained in the program and operative to:
- retrieve a trouble ticket associated with one of the circuits and a trouble code and analysis code (TC/AC) combination associated with the trouble ticket,
- determine whether the trouble ticket meets a watch list criterion, and
- in response to determining that the trouble ticket meets the watch list criterion, add the trouble ticket and the TC/AC combination to the watch list.
A computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon for execution by a processor to perform a method for populating a watch list with circuits of a communications network to be monitored for repeat failures, the method comprising:
- retrieving a trouble ticket associated with one of the circuits and a trouble code and analysis code (TC/AC) combination associated with the trouble ticket;
- determining whether the trouble ticket meets a watch list criterion;
- and
- in response to determining that the trouble ticket meets the watch list criterion, adding the trouble ticket and the TC/AC combination to the watch list.
