Improving Test Operations in Validation
Validation engineers often have many manual processes they need to follow in their workflow. From searching for and potentially purchasing new equipment, manually deploying test programs, monitoring the test during run-time, and manually analyzing the data after a test is complete, the inefficiencies and costs can be impactful. To improve efficiency in the workflow and reduce cost, validation engineers must have a solution where they can:
- Remotely view all test systems, the equipment in them, and which software is currently deployed on the system
- Identify which equipment is in which test system and how it is being utilized
- Monitor the status of tests and systems remotely and get notified or receive alarms if something goes wrong
- Automate reporting of test results and seamlessly analyze and compare results across tests
SystemLink™ Software in Validation Test
- Monitor system health and states, receive alarms when systems are close to CPU, memory, and other limits and get notified of upcoming calibration dates to avoid test reruns
- Always know what you have available for an upcoming test with a complete view of your connected systems, the specific equipment in them, and their utilization
- Save time by monitoring your tests remotely and set up notifications and alarms so you can take the right action sooner if a test unexpectedly fails
- Analyze your results faster with ingestion, standardization, and enrichment of data from all your connected testers for automated and interactive data processing
Solution Advantages
-
Enables data-driven decisions and a view of where assets are and how they are used, resulting in cost savings from unnecessary expensive purchases
-
Improved and modern processes through data insights on how system health, test failures, and analysis of test results impact your workflow
-
Simplifies secure sharing of test and performance data across functions accelerating product iterations and reducing time to get to market
“SystemLink software is empowering teams with benefits beyond the traditional focus of test. It ensures systems and assets are healthy, it provides insight with web-based test monitoring, and it gives power to data with enterprise-level analysis and reporting.”
