Service Offerings Testing can be costly, with respect to both time and quality. Our test labs have state-of-the-art infrastructure, test management capabilities, and software frameworks to save you that effort and accelerate your time to market. Stress & Stability Ensuring greater efficiency for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth devices Interoperability Connecting devices for a more intelligent world Wi-Fi Pre-Certification Getting your devices ready for market and success Lab Infrastructure GlobalEdge's world-class labs are equipped with an updated test bed infrastructure in compliance with WFA requirements, and provide an automated 24x7 test execution environment. Test beds are available for both WTS and manual execution, and support real-time test scenarios. A modular design allows for easy testing of additional scenarios. Hardware: Shielded Environment (RF Chambers and Boxes) 300+ stations, APs, and Special Devices covering various WLAN chipsets Wi-Spy Analyzer Bluetooth Sniffer (BPA 600 Dual-Mode) Headsets, Car Kits, Handheld/HID/BLE Devices from different vendors Software/Tools: GlobalEdge Test Automation Suite 802.1x Server and Supplicants Wireless Sniffer (Omnipeek, Wireshark) Performance Measurement Tool (Ixia Chariot, iperf) Our Differentiators Alliances Expertise Automation Know-How Associate member of the Wi-Fi Alliance (WFA) and Bluetooth SIG Extensive experience in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Stack development testing and automation Ready-to-deploy test automation for all services and compliance Technical expertise for initial triaging for failed test cases GlobalEdge also offers value-add by performing gap analysis, developing ASD test plans, executing test cases multiple times, debugging during test cycles (after root cause analysis), and creating detailed test reports with relevant logs from Chariot and Omnipeek.

3 Stress & Stability WLAN networks are rapidly growing and are quickly replacing wired networks as the main access technology in homes and enterprises. It is mandatory that these networks be tested for Stress & Stability to ensure a high-quality experience. Programs Offered GlobalEdge offers a dedicated Connectivity Stress & Stability lab that delivers manual and automated testing services for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth devices. The lab tests stations and APs with commercial devices for real-time use case scenarios. Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Stations Access Points Automated configuration and execution of test scenarios Connection verification across multiple reboots Stress Scenarios: Connect/Disconnect, uplink, and downlink data traffic Connection verification for stand-alone and multiple profiles Automated configuration and execution of test scenarios Stress Scenarios: 100+ stations for data streaming, roaming, video sharing, and file downloading Stability Scenarios: Long-duration link sustainability (1-10 days) Testing Real-Time Scenarios: Home, School, and Enterprise networks Success Story GlobalEdge executed Wi-Fi Stress & Stability testing of a Home Router. The team was responsible for automated and manual testing of the device in different use case scenarios. GlobalEdge tracked down 50+ issues, including those related to crashes and connectivity issues. Through automated Stress & Stability testing, the team was able to reduce the test cycle time by 50% per cycle.

4 Interoperability The market for consumer electronics devices is witnessing an unprecedented boom. These consumer electronics are an amalgamation of various technologies. A smartphone, for example, includes technologies such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GPS, 4G, and LTE. Therefore, interoperability testing is a key requirement for devices today. It is essential to replicate all realistic scenarios and interactions between devices during the Interop process. Programs Offered GlobalEdge offers a dedicated Connectivity Interop Lab that is capable of manual and automated interop testing of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth devices. The lab can test Windows, Linux, Android, ios, and embedded devices for interoperability with all major commercial connectivity-based products under all supported configurable modes. Wi-Fi Programs Bluetooth Programs Station & Access Point Interop Automated configuration of AP and STA Support for Open, WEP, WPA, WPA2, 802.1x, WPS, TCP, and UDP traffic 3 hours/3rd-party Device to complete 120 interop test scenarios P2P Interop Automated configuration of P2P devices (support GO and AutoGO) Performance measurement support for uplink, downlink, and bi-directional 2 hours/3rd-party Device to complete 36 interop test scenarios Stand-alone / Multi profile Testing System Testing Stress and Stability Testing Performance Testing Bluetooth Controller Testing Bluetooth - WLAN Coexistence Success Story GlobalEdge undertook Wi-Fi Interoperability testing of a client station for a Tier II semiconductor player. This involved automated Interoperability testing of the device in different modes like Open, WEP, and WPA/ WPA2-PSK, and measuring the connectivity time. Using its Interoperability test tool, GlobalEdge was able to reduce the test cycle time by 75% per cycle.

5 Wi-Fi Pre-Certification In this era of smart devices and the growing consumption of data services, Wi-Fi connectivity is a must-have feature for all smart devices. We expect devices to seamlessly connect to Wi-Fi or Wi-Fi hotspots wherever available, both at home and on-the-go. Identifying the crucial importance of Wi-Fi connectivity and interoperability among devices, the Wi-Fi Alliance (WFA) has evangelized the WFA certification. The WFA certification goes a long way in increasing the marketability of Wi-Fi-enabled devices. The certification, however, requires extensive testing in a carefully-simulated environment. WFA specifies pre-defined test plans that require the use of specific test equipment. Setting up and maintaining such an extensive infrastructure can be expensive and time-consuming. This is where GlobalEdge steps in as a valued partner. Programs Offered GlobalEdge offers a simple and cost-effective alternative to companies and OEMs looking to achieve WFA certification. Our testing services, conducted at our state-of-the-art test labs, are delivered by engineers with extensive and niche expertise in wireless technologies as well as implementing testing best practices. GlobalEdge, with its deep domain knowledge, is perfectly positioned to push your testing certification standards a level up with offerings around: n ac PMF - Protected Management Frames WPS Wi-Fi Protected Setup 2 HS Passpoint R2 Wi-Fi Direct WMM_PS - Wi-Fi Multi Media Power Save ASD - Application Specific Devices Success Story GlobalEdge helped a Tier II semiconductor company develop and pre-certify the HS2.0 Passpoint feature for an AP. This involved upgrading the open-source WPA supplicant tool to the latest version and adding the u feature, aside from WFA Pre-Certification testing. With a rapid ramp-up of resources, by setting up the WFA HS2.0 Passpoint test bed, coordinating between onsite and offshore teams, and aligning with customer processes, GlobalEdge reduced the product time-to-market by 25%.
