Description

A Test Method for Intelligent Service Performance

technical field

The invention relates to electric communication technology, in particular to a test method for intelligent service performance.

Background technique

The intelligent network service runs on the SCP (service control point), and the user triggers and uses the intelligent service on the SCP through the No. 7 signaling network through the SSP (service switch point). The SCP is composed of a service control module and a protocol conversion module. The SCP and the SSP are connected through the No. 7 signaling network. The service control module of the SCP controls the operation of the intelligent business. The conversion between signaling and TCP/IP protocol is shown in Figure 1 as its networking diagram. Service performance refers to the number of service calls completed per unit time. With the rapid development of the intelligent network, the types of intelligent services and the number of users are increasing, and the performance requirements for the services are also getting higher and higher. New service requirements are constantly emerging, and the newly developed services must meet certain performance requirements before they can be put into actual operation. Business performance testing is very important and frequent. At present, special test equipment is usually used to test the performance of services. The test equipment simulates a switch and is connected to the SCP through the No. 7 signaling network. Before the test, the message code flow of the call is constructed for the business call process, and the call data is prepared for each call. During the test, the test equipment is based on the prepared call data and The call process initiates a large number of intelligent service calls to the SCP, automatically completes the message interaction with the SCP during the call, and counts the number of calls completed by the SCP within a unit time, so as to obtain the service performance. The disadvantages of the prior art are:

(a) The network is complex and needs to be connected to the No. 7 signaling network, which requires a lot of equipment, especially the performance of the SCP is getting higher and higher. Since the ability to send and receive the No. 7 signaling part of the test equipment is low, test a high-performance SCP Multiple sets of test equipment are required, which is highly dependent on hardware.

(b) The message code flow structure of the call is complex, and it is necessary to construct the transaction processing capability application protocol TCAP layer, operation or error layer; the call data preparation is complicated, and the call data needs to be prepared separately for each call.

Contents of the invention

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a service intelligence test method to solve the technical problems of complex networking and strong dependence on hardware in the existing intelligent service test method.

In order to realize the purpose of the invention, a kind of intelligent business performance testing method of the present invention comprises the following steps:

1. Prepare call data and construct call process;

2. Convert the prepared call data and structured call flow through protocol conversion to initiate a large number of business intelligent calls to the service control module, and automatically complete the information interaction with the service control module during the call;

Three, count the number of calls that the service control module completes in unit time, obtain service performance, it is characterized in that, the preparation call data in the described step 1 is by setting call data generation rule in software, then produces by data generation rule The call data is realized; the construction call flow is realized by using script description in the software.

The protocol of the call flow constructed by using the script description method and the call data generated according to the data generation rules is consistent with the protocol acceptable to the service control module, and the constructed call flow and the prepared call data are directly processed without protocol conversion. Initiate a large number of business intelligence calls to the business control module.

The data generation rule is a sequential cycle increment method, that is, the minimum value and the maximum value are defined, and the call data starts from the minimum value and increases sequentially until the maximum value, and then starts from the minimum value again, and can continue to circulate.

The said data generation rule is a random method within the interval, defining an interval between a minimum value and a maximum value, and the call data is a random number within this interval.

The data generation rule is a file reading method, that is, the call data of a call is used as a record line, and the call data of all calls are stored in a file, and the call data is obtained by sequentially reading the record lines from the file during testing.

After adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, due to the pure software method, the simulation protocol conversion equipment and the SSP part simplifies the test networking mode and reduces the dependence on the hardware; the script is used to describe the call flow, and the TCAP layer, operation Or error layer messages, so that the message structure of the call becomes simple; define the rules for generating call data, and automatically generate call data according to the rules when calling.

Detailed ways

As shown in Figure 3, a test method for intelligent service performance includes the following steps:

1. Set the call data generation rules in the software and generate call data according to the call data generation rules, use script description in the software to generate the call flow library, and then find out the call data corresponding to the generated call data in the call flow library call flow;

2. Initiate a large number of business intelligent calls to the service control module with the prepared call data and the call flow corresponding to the call data, and automatically complete the information interaction with the service control module during the call;

3. The service performance can be obtained by counting the number of calls completed by the service control module within a unit time.

The generation rules of call data can be in the following three forms:

1) Sequential cyclic increment method: define the minimum value and maximum value, and the call data starts from the minimum value and increases sequentially until the maximum value, then starts from the minimum value again, and can continue to circulate.

2) Random mode within the interval: define an interval between the minimum value and the maximum value, and the call data is a random number within this interval.

3) File reading method: use the call data of one call as a record line, save the call data of all calls in the file, and read the record lines sequentially from the file to obtain the call data during the test.

The call flow script syntax is as follows:

1) Define the call type;

2) Define each step in the call: respectively define the initiating entity (SSP or SCP, etc.), control time, dialog primitives, component primitives, operations or errors and the values of their parameters;

The specific implementation method of call flow script syntax is as follows:

           
        BEGIN

         CALLTYPE {INAP/CAP/MAP/CDMA} ∥ call type: fixed network, G network, C network

         STEPBEGIN {SSP|SCP} control time (seconds) ∥ SSP means the message sent from SSP to SCP
        <!-- SIPO <DP n="3"> -->
        <dp n="d3"/>
        message, SCP means the message sent from SCP to SSP

              TCD dialog primitives

              TCC Component Primitives

              INAP operation or error name

                        ∥ This step is to assign values to the parameters of the operation or error in the following format when the SSP is initiated

              {

                  operation or error name = value

                   …

              }

                         ...... ∥ If the dialogue primitive of this step has multiple component primitives

    list separately

                         TCC Component Primitives

              INAP operation or error name

                        ∥ This step is to assign values to the parameters of the operation or error in the following format when the SSP is initiated

              {

                 operation or error parameter name = value

                  …

              }
        STEPEND

        STEPBEGIN {SSP|SCP} control time (seconds)

                  …

        STEPEND

         …

        END
