Abstract

A method for testing a display panel includes: applying a first level signal to a first sub-pixel and a third sub-pixel of a first pixel unit and applying a second level signal to a second sub-pixel of the first pixel unit; applying the second level signal to a first sub-pixel and a third sub-pixel of a second pixel unit and applying the first level signal to a second sub-pixel of the second pixel unit; and detecting a short circuit between adjacent sub-pixels. The first level signal has a voltage polarity opposite to a voltage polarity of the second level signal. Therefore, it is ensured that any two adjacent sub-pixels have opposite voltage polarities when the short circuit between adjacent sub-pixels of the display panel is detected. The method also provides improved testing abilities to detect an open circuit in a sub-pixel.
