Abstract

A sensor function testing method and a computer program product thereof are provided. In the present method, a rearm type corresponding to a rearm function of a sensor in a server is obtained, wherein the sensor is in a normal status or one of a plurality of failure statuses. Then, the sensor is respectively triggered to enter and exit each of the failure statuses. If the rearm type is an auto rearm type and the sensor automatically returns to the normal status every time when the sensor is triggered to exit one of the failure statuses, the rearm function is determined as normal. If the rearm type is a manual rearm type and the sensor only returns to the normal status after receiving a rearm instruction every time when the sensor is triggered to exit one of the failure statuses, the rearm function is determined as normal.
