An integrated test environment for the data acquisition
electronics of the Scintillator Pad Detector (SPD) from the
calorimeter of the LHCb experiment is presented. It allows to
test separately every single board or to perform global system
tests, while being able to emulate every part of the system and
debug it. This environment is foreseen to test the production
of spare electronic boards and help the maintenance of the
SPD electronics along the life of the detector. The heart of the
system is an Altera Stratix II FPGA while the main board can
be controlled over USB, Ethernet or WiFi.
