Abstract

A testing method for a smart wristband and a testing system thereof are provided. The Bluetooth function of the smart wristband is put into a sleep state through presetting of the system software before the test, and the testing method comprises the following steps of: carrying out electrical connection operations on the smart wristband under test during the test so that the Bluetooth function of the smart wristband is activated; completing pairing between the smart wristband and the testing apparatus, and synchronously displaying a corresponding function of the smart wristband on a screen of the testing apparatus so as to be tested, wherein the testing apparatus is a smartphone, and the testing of the corresponding function includes at least one of Bluetooth power testing, writing of the mainboard serial number, charging testing and motor vibration controlling.

First claim

1 . A testing method tor a smart wristband, the Bluetooth function of the smart wristband being put into a sleep state through presetting of the system software before the test, the testing method comprising the following steps of:
carrying out electrical connection operations on the smart wristband under test during the test so that the Bluetooth function of the smart wristband is activated, wherein the smart wristband under test is electrically connected to a testing apparatus during the test and is electrically disconnected from the testing apparatus after the Bluetooth function is activated; and completing pairing between the smart wristband and the testing apparatus, and synchronously displaying a corresponding function of the smart wristband on a screen of the testing apparatus so as to be tested, wherein the testing apparatus is a smartphone, the testing of the corresponding function includes at least one of Bluetooth power testing, writing of the mainboard serial number, charging testing and motor vibration controlling, and wherein the smartphone accomplishes writing of the mainboard serial number of the smart wristband through scanning with a camera of the smartphone, and positions of the smartphone and the smart wristband relative to each other remain unchanged during the Bluetooth power testing.

2 . The testing method of claim 1 , further comprising the following step before the step of carrying out electrical connection operations on the smart wristband under test:
completing self-testing by the smart wristband automatically through the use of the system software, wherein the self-testing includes LED testing and sensor testing.

3 . The testing method of claim 2 , further comprising the following steps of:
setting the corresponding function to correspond to a first flag bit before the test; and
if the test passes, then setting the corresponding function to correspond to a second flag bit, and generating test information according to the second flag bit and uploading the test information to the smartphone.

4 . The testing method of claim 1 , wherein the smart wristband is provided with a reset button, and the testing method further comprises the following step of:
when the smart wristband runs out of power during the test, then charging the smart wristband and, meanwhile, long-pressing the reset button to put the Bluetooth function of the smart wristband into the sleep state again.

5 . A testing method for a smart wristband, the Bluetooth function of the smart wristband being put into a sleep state through presetting of the system software before the test, the testing method comprising the following steps of:
carrying out electrical connection operations on the smart wristband under test during the test so that the Bluetooth function of the smart wristband is activated; and completing pairing between the smart wristband and the testing apparatus, and synchronously displaying a corresponding function of the smart wristband on a screen of the testing apparatus so as to be tested, wherein the testing apparatus is a smartphone, the testing of the corresponding function includes at least one of Bluetooth power testing, writing of the mainboard serial number, charging testing and motor vibration controlling.

6 . The testing method of claim 5 , further comprising the following step before the step of carrying out electrical connection operations on the smart wristband under test:
completing self-testing by the smart wristband automatically through the use of the system software, wherein the self-testing includes LED testing and sensor testing.

7 . The testing method of claim 5 , wherein the smartphone accomplishes writing of the mainboard serial number of the smart wristband through scanning with a camera of the smartphone, and positions of the smartphone and the smart wristband relative to each other remain unchanged during the Bluetooth power testing.

8 . (canceled)

9 . The testing method of claim 5 , wherein the step of carrying out electrical connection operations on the smart wristband under test during the test comprises the following step of:
electrically connecting the smart wristband under test to the testing apparatus during the test, and electrically disconnecting the smart wristband from the testing apparatus after the Bluetooth function is activated.

10 . The testing method of claim 9 , wherein the smart wristband is provided with a reset button, and the testing method further comprises the following step of:
if the smart wristband runs out of power during the test, then charging the smart wristband and, meanwhile, long-pressing the reset button to put the Bluetooth function of the smart wristband into the sleep state again.

11 . A testing system for a smart wristband, the testing system comprising a shielding box as well as a positioning mechanism, power pins and a testing apparatus disposed within the shielding box, wherein:
the positioning mechanism is adapted to fix the testing apparatus and the smart wristband under test to specified positions in the shielding box before the test, the Bluetooth function of the smart wristband is put into a sleep state through presetting of the system software, and the testing apparatus is a smartphone; the power pins are adapted to carry out electrical connection operations on the smart wristband under test during the test so that the Bluetooth function of the smart wristband is activated to complete pairing between the smart wristband and the testing apparatus and a corresponding function of the smart wristband is synchronously displayed on a screen of the testing apparatus so as to be tested, wherein the testing of the corresponding function includes at least one of Bluetooth power testing, writing of the mainboard serial number, charging testing and motor vibration controlling.

12 . The testing system of claim 11 , wherein the power pins are adapted to electrically connect the smart wristband under test to the testing apparatus during the test and electrically disconnect the smart wristband from the testing apparatus after the Bluetooth function is activated.

13 . The testing system of claim 12 , further comprising a loud speaker and an earphone jack, wherein the loud speaker is adapted to play a ringtone for prompting that the pairing has been completed, and the earphone jack is adapted to receive an earphone therein so that the prompting ringtone is played via the earphone to prompt that the pairing has been completed.

14 . The testing system of claim 12 , wherein the smart wristband is provided with a reset button, which is adapted to put the Bluetooth function of the smart wristband into the sleep state again through long-pressing of the reset button if the smart wristband runs out of power during the test and is being charged.

15 . The testing method of claim 1 , wherein whether the pairing between the smart wristband and the smartphone has been completed is determined by the following steps:
setting a third flag bit or a fourth flag bit in the smart wristband and the smartphone before the pairing; and when the pairing is completed, then setting the flag bits in the smart wristband and the smartphone to be the fourth flag bit; and when the pairing is not completed, then setting the flag bits in the smart wristband and the smartphone to be the third flag bit.
