Abstract: In order to meet the needs of the testing laboratory's task scheduling and process design functions，

the new applications were developed based on the existing laboratory information management system，such as

scheduling system and process designer. According to the type and priority of the test task，the test tasks were

automatically scheduled in the scheduling system，which consisted of normal appointment scheduling，emergency

queue jumping，and treatment of breaking an appointment. Finally，the scheduling results were displayed in the

form of gantt char，in which the guidance was provided for the implementation and control of the test progress. The scalable vector graphics were used in the process designer to implement the process canvas. Users can draw and

publish the process by dragging a mouse，so as to reduce dependence on software developers and cut down operation and maintenance costs.
