This thesis examines the possibility of designing a fully integrated and switched testing environment for a test laboratory which conducts automated testing. Execution of tests in this environment will make it possible to manage all test objects without requiring any manual intervention resulting in efficient utilization of machine hours and test objects. The thesis explores the concepts and requirements for designing such an environment. It also describes the methods to implement the environment. The result of the thesis work shows that it is possible to design and implement a fully integrated and switched testing environment which can reduce the lead time for delivery by a substantial amount along with a more efficient utilization of machine hours and resources. The exact information related to the instruments, devices under testing and tools are removed by the author according to NDA.
