Abstract

An example test system includes instruments for controlling testing. Each instrument may be controlled by a processing unit. Each processing unit may be configured to operate on portions of a test program relevant to an instrument that the processing unit controls. A synchronization mechanism operates with at least some processing units to produce a synchronized sequence of actions, measurements, or measurements and actions at a test instrument interface absent intervention from a centralized controller.
