Abstract
The invention relates to the field of technical testing, and more particularly to a method of testing a machine, the method comprising: at least one step (S101) of determining a plurality of operating points for said machine, each operating point being defined by a duration and a specific value of at least one operating parameter of the machine; a step of calculating a set of distances between pairs of operating points; a step (S106) of selecting an optimum sequence of operating points by applying an algorithm for solving the traveling salesman problem to said set of distances between pairs of operating points; and a step (S107) of controlling the operation of said machine according to said optimum sequence of operating points.
