Allion AI Agent PC
Automation Testing Solution

Scenario 1: OS Upgrades and Driver Regression Testing

After an OS version update or driver upgrade, App compatibility, audio, and video output may be affected, potentially leading to BSoD or functional failures in severe cases.

• Automatically compare App versions, driver versions, and registry settings before and after updates
• Read configuration values via OCR and compare them with SPEC, while using image recognition to verify UI elements
• Integrate external cameras to recognize BIOS screens and confirm that UEFI settings are not reset after updates

Scenario 2: Power Management Loop Testing

Repeatedly entering and leaving power-saving modes (S3 Sleep, S4 Hibernate) during prolonged PC usage can trigger driver failures, BSoD, data loss, and other low-probability but high-impact issues.

• Utilize AC/DC Power Control fixtures for remote power management, simulating complete cold boot and shutdown cycles
• Employ Physical Button Pressing Fixtures to control power buttons for sleep/wake operations
• Pair external cameras with image recognition to monitor screens for abnormal displays
• Monitor DUT status via network Ping from the Host PC to automatically determine if a reset is required

Scenario 3: Display Output Interface Verification

With the growing demand for 4K/5K/8K high-resolution displays, multi-monitor configurations and various interface switches (USB-C, HDMI, DP) complicate the testing matrix.

• Allion I/O Switch Fixture simulates HDMI / DisplayPort / USB-C device plugging, unplugging, and switching
• Use external cameras to recognize screen OSD menus and resolution settings
• Automatically detect OSD display anomalies, screen tearing, no-signal issues, etc.

Scenario 4: Intermittent Long-Term Testing
(Unattended Testing)

Some bugs have strict trigger conditions (occurrence rate < 10%) and must be executed under specific timing sequences to recur, making them difficult to reproduce consistently via manual testing.

• Precise timing execution: Scripts can set exact waiting times (e.g., triggering after 60 minutes of idle time) to ensure consistent operational timing for each test
• Physical Button Pressing Fixtures control power buttons, eliminating the need for manual waiting
• Image recognition automatically detects abnormal UI states and instantly captures screenshots as evidence upon failure
• 24/7 cyclical execution significantly increases the reproduction rate of low-probability bugs

Scenario 5: Long-Term Stability and Stress Testing

PC products must pass reliability verification through continuous, long-term operation to ensure that accumulated environmental factors do not trigger anomalies.

• Multi-device control architecture: One Host PC simultaneously manages multiple DUTs to run stress tests in parallel
• I/O Switch Fixture automates USB/HDMI hot-plugging cycles
• Comprehensive log records trace operations throughout the entire process, allowing anomalies at any point in time to be reviewed

Scenario 6: Post-Deployment Environment Verification (OOBE Automation)

Enterprise IT or ODM manufacturers need to perform identical environment setups on a large volume of PCs to ensure consistent settings across all devices and verify deployment success rates.

• Keyboard Simulator controls BIOS/UEFI settings and OOBE input processes (eliminating manual device-by-device configuration)
• OCR recognizes text on installation screens to automatically determine setup progress and success/failure status
• Multi-device control architecture manages multiple DUTs simultaneously, significantly shortening overall deployment time
