ABSTRACT:
A method for automatically testing elements in a telecommunications network. An automated testing protocol is initiated based on the notification of a network event. When test results are received from the automated testing protocol, a trouble ticket is automatically opened containing the test results. The trouble ticket is then routed to the appropriate party. In embodiments of the invention, test results are logged, a database is queried to determine if the event has occurred previously, the trouble ticket is prioritized based on the severity of the event, and a time stamp is placed on the trouble ticket. The automated testing protocol and the event correlation database can be accessed through a graphical user interface. Multiple automated testing modules can be integrated into a single graphical user interface. Users can log in to prevent interference among users.
