Introduction: The testing plan for the Nanolab GUI (with hardware specifications) where determined by categorizing qualitative and quantitative data/nessesary information regarding the deveopment of the interface. The testing plan is being developed primiarilyh based on current items/hardware due to the lack of equipment of the other Nanolabs, limiting the plan testing.
Software: Testing our software consist of running the GUI and all buttons and features work and the program works with no bugs. To test the export feature within the Nanolab, the group will test the data transfer twice every 2.5 min per hour to simulate data transfer occurring twice a day. The code will be tested via the hardware and potential/future equipment will be accommodated when developing the final program.
Hardware: All hardware is in the capabilities of running GUI. Check for overheating and battery always plugged in and a constant power source. Our goal is to stay under 80% of the capabilities of all components used in setting up and running our GUI. The hardware of the other Nanolab groups is necessary to determine the capabilities of the GUI, the interface may have limitations regarding different sensors (may require different inputs).
Conclusion:
Our team makes sure to address every single aspect for the final implementation of the Interface. The interface will require typical equipment of a computer. The data provided will give an insight into what specific equipment is needed (quantitative) and how the interface needs to work for professors and the general public (qualitative).
