Abstract

This disclosure proposes an inventive system capable of testing a component in the system during runtime. The system may comprise: a substrate; a plurality of functional components, of the plurality of functional components being mounted onto the substrate and including a circuitry; a system bus formed with electrically conductive pattern onto the substrate thereby allowing the plurality of functional components to communicate with each other; one or more wrappers, each of the one or more wrappers connected to one of the plurality of functional components; and an in-system component tester (ICT) configured to: select, as a component under test (CUT), at least one functional component, in an idle state, of the plurality of the functional components; and test, via the one or more test wrappers, the at least one functional component selected as the CUT.
