USB-C looks simple but in reality, it’s not.
The BLE caberQU checks what a cable can actually handle. It measures the maximum data speed and charging power (up to 240W), evaluates overall cable health and verifies which USB standards are really supported.

It also reads the cable’s internal e-Marker chip, analyzes pin connections and measures electrical resistance to detect hidden limitations.

In April last year, Codethink announced the Quality Assurance Daemon (QAD) tool: a lightweight Linux daemon designed to aid functional testing of software applications by interacting with the User Interface (UI) of an embedded system. We’ve recently made some enhancements to the tooling, and will be covering these in our latest blog post.
