Session Agenda
CX7.1 Introduction to Verification Sequences and Test Scripts
- What is a Verification Sequence?
- Overview of verification sequences and their role in functional testing and system validation.
- How to design effective test scripts that ensure proper system operation and performance.
- Creating Test Scripts:
- Step-by-step guide to designing and creating custom test scripts for system verification.
CX7.2 Designing Custom Workflows for Sequence of Operation (SOO) Validation
- SOO Validation:
- Overview of Sequence of Operation (SOO) and why it is critical for BMS system validation.
- Designing custom workflows for SOO validation to ensure system functions as intended.
- Automation in SOO Validation:
- Automating validation tasks using CUBE Cx for faster and more efficient commissioning.
CX7.3 Configuring Pass/Fail Testing Criteria
- Defining Pass/Fail Criteria:
- How to define testing criteria to determine whether a system or component passes or fails during verification.
- Setting up threshold values and performance benchmarks for automated testing.
- Automating Pass/Fail Testing:
- Configuring automated pass/fail testing in CUBE Cx to streamline system validation.
CX7.4 Analyzing Test Results and Troubleshooting Common Failures
- Test Result Analysis:
- How to analyze test results to determine system performance.
- Identifying common test failures and interpreting error messages.
- Troubleshooting Common Failures:
- Troubleshooting techniques for resolving common commissioning issues during testing.
- Using CUBE Cx diagnostic tools to troubleshoot and resolve issues.
Hands-On Preview (Optional if time allows)
- Create a sample verification sequence and test script in CUBE Cx.
- Design and configure an SOO validation workflow for a system.
- Set up pass/fail criteria and analyze test results for a sample system.
Post-Session Action Items
- Review your current verification and testing workflows and integrate automation where possible.
- Design custom test scripts for common systems in your projects.
- Test the pass/fail criteria configuration in a sample system.
- Practice analyzing test results and troubleshooting common system failures.
