- Pass rate
- i.MX53 TABLET ---- 3 failure cases left among all 13610 cases
- 1 failure is caused by CTS case itself, which has been reported to Google CTS community.
- 2 failures are caused by the cellular network condition. These two cases are for 3G which failed to retrieve SMS delivery report within 5 minutes for fragmented long SMS.
- Note: CTS result depends on many factors
- Tested Target (i.e. HW board, SW running on it)
The above pass rate (3 failure cases) is tested with specified test target (i.MX53 TABLET + Android R10.3 SW).
When running CTS on different target (e.g. on customer's board, or with modified SW), you may get various CTS result - Environment (i.e. cellular/wifi network condition, network configuration, HW board stability, etc)
Even with same test target (i.e. same HW+SW), run CTS several times may get various result. For example, those 2 3G related failures cases above may pass sometimes.
