Bluetooth |

The Bluetooth test allows a systems Bluetooth adapter to be tested with a remote Bluetooth device.

- | The Bluetooth test can be turned on or off in preferences. The remote Bluetooth device name is to be specified in Preferences, if no device name is specified, the test assumes the first remote Bluetooth device found is to be used for the test. This allows for automation when multiple remote Bluetooth devices are detected.

- | The Bluetooth test will run at the same time as the other tests selected (e.g. CPU) and will have 3 stages:

1. | Search for Bluetooth devices (already paired devices and devices in range),

2. | Request the specified (or first) remote Bluetooth device service profiles and

3. | For the duration of the test, continuously connect and disconnect to the “File transfer” service profile of the specified remote Bluetooth device. If the “File transfer” service profile is not available, the first service profile found will be used.

- | The local and remote Bluetooth devices will need to support the Bluetooth “File transfer” service profile.

- | On making a connection to the remote Bluetooth device, some remote devices require an Authentication Passkey to be entered on the remote device, and then on the local device. This occurs on the first iteration and this requires user manual interaction to enter a Passkey on both sides. Second and subsequent connections do not require the Passkey to be re-entered. Some devices allow certain service profiles to not require Authentication (a Passkey), and in this case, no user interaction should be required. We have been testing both scenarios. The later scenario is supported on a HP Windows Mobile Pocket PC we have (as the remote Bluetooth device).

The test has been designed to test to a mobile Bluetooth device supported te "File transfer" service profile e.g. Pocket PC, mobile phone and iPhone. It is not for PC to PC testing.

The Bluetooth test is available on Windows workstations XP SP2 and later, Vista and Windows 7.
