OctoScope, a developer of automated wireless personal testbeds, has launched its new STACK-WFA testbed for automated Wi-Fi 6 testing of access point (AP) and station (STA) devices.
OctoScope ships its STACK-WFA pre-configured with built-in AP and STA devices for testing Wi-Fi 6 features. Servers needed for feature testing, such as RADIUS, are included, making the testbed turnkey and usable out of the box.
"With the addition of Wi-Fi 6 testing, the OctoBox personal testbed now includes hundreds of new automated test cases to help our customers verify interoperability and functionality of their devices. Members of Wi-Fi Alliance may work with our engineers to install the system and train new users in 1-2 days in order to test Wi-Fi 6 features and prepare for Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6 testing.” said Fanny Mlinarsky, president of OctoScope.
Stackable and configurable OctoBox personal testbeds are completely isolated from external interference and can be used at an engineer’s office or lab bench.
Each OctoBox testbed is controlled by a dedicated Node.js web server accessible via a browser UI for manual control, or via REST API for test automation. The server provides the time base for the testbed and controls the built-in instruments, DUT configuration, traffic and test flow. Test results are saved in a MongoDB database, enabling multiple teams to easily collaborate by sharing the test automation scripts and test results.
