System Architecture
A major objective of AutomationDesk is to be usable for a wide range of application areas. It has therefore been designed as a tool with open interfaces. AutomationDesk can be customized and integrated into customer-specific development environments. AutomationDesk provides a graphical user interface for creating and modifying test projects and test sequences. The user interface makes use of existing Python libraries, but hides the Python world. Due to its open architecture, it is possible to integrate new or third-party hardware and software components into AutomationDesk. Application programming interfaces (APIs) such as a DLL or COM interface can be wrapped into AutomationDesk’s cooperation layer and thus used from within AutomationDesk.
