Method, apparatus and article for validating ADC devices, such as barcode, RFID and magnetic stripe readers

摘要

Reconfiguration and/or upgrade of Automatic Data Collection (ADC) devices such as barcode readers, RFID readers and/or magnetic stripe readers is facilitated by performing adequate testing, prompt accurate analysis of the results of such testing, and prompt delivery of the analysis to those involved with the development of ADC device builds, associated components and/or functionality. The functionality of ADC devices and/or ADC device platforms is determined and appropriate tests are selected and provided to the ADC device and/or ADC device platform for execution. Results are received, analyzed and provided to appropriate users.
