MKAT SOFTWARE
Test management software made easier.
MKAT® is our gen3 test management software combining renowned ease of use with highly advanced capability.
Designed to simplify the test process for programmers as well as operators, the interface is simple and no coding language knowledge is required. A powerful measurement and reporting tool, MKAT can handle complex datasets, creating test programs automatically in seconds.
CREATE TEST PROGRAMS
Ease of use without compromising on functionality.
MKAT simplifies the testing process whilst providing accurate and fast measurements using complex datasets.
No coding language is required, and we've worked hard to ensure a simple interface. Test programs are saved as a single XML file for simplicity.
Don't just take our word for it - MKAT was rated "easy to use" by a reassuring 87% of our customers in a recent survey.
CREATE TEST PROGRAMS
Toolsets for automatic test program creation.
With several smart toolsets available as standard, MKAT is designed to make the most of your data:
- AutoLearn analyses an existing 'golden' harness to acquire your connection data.
- The Expressions tool uses measurement values obtained during a test to influence another subtest.
- APG (Automatic Program Generation) creates test programs from your data.
- Translation tool to easily import your legacy test programs from Ditmco, Synor and more in just a few clicks.
CREATE TEST PROGRAMS
Automatically create test programs from your existing data.
APG (Automatic Program Generation) offers rapid, automatic test program generation and eliminates manual programming errors. It's the simplest method of creating test programs for continuity, insulation, shorts and HiPot (dielectric withstand) as well as full component functional testing.
Available as a standard toolset at no extra cost, the APG toolset is designed to be easily configured by the user to suit their own input data format.
We estimate around 70% of MK users are using the APG tool, saving time and maximizing test efficiency.
APG was awarded recognition by BAE Systems' F35 project team for reducing their test program generation time from a forecast of 4 months to less than 1 hour.
RUN TEST PROGRAMS
Stand-alone runner software for secure operator access.
We’ve split our Runner and Editor software into 2 separate packages.
The Runner is designed for operators – it’s optimised for touch screen control and makes learning to run a test very easy. Separate editor software ensures that only trained personnel can create and modify test programs.
Having separate runner software means test programs cannot be modified by unauthorised users. Talking of users, access and control can be set up for different users and user types.
RUN TEST PROGRAMS
Add custom operator instructions.
Improve efficiency by guiding operators through complex tasks.
Use text, imagery, documents and even videos to build a library of instructions which can be added any number of times across sub-tests.
Adding your own operator instructions enhances safety and QA during testing by reducing the risk of errors, and ensuring standardised procedures are followed.
RUN TEST PROGRAMS
Run tests remotely on multiple devices.
MKAT Runner can be controlled with a remote device on the same network, eliminating the need for physical access to the host computer.
When MKAT is used in conjunction with the RTS test system, multiple operators can view and run different tests concurrently.

ANALYSE DATA
Identify recurring issues with trend analysis.
Detect recurring defects and identify process inefficiencies by interrogating your test data.
MKAT's 'analyse test' feature produces a trend report to present test results visually and clearly.
ANALYSE DATA
Ensure data integrity with results verification.
Enhance the accuracy and trustworthiness of the testing process by confirming that results have not been tampered with or altered.
By selecting the 'verify' option, the software will run a check to ensure the results have not been altered externally, notifying the user of the result.
REPORT RESULTS
Customisable reports tailored to your requirements.
Use report templates to edit report layouts, amend headers and footers, and add your logo.
Focus on the most relevant information and improve clarity by repositioning and hiding data columns, as well as editing column headings.
FURTHER FEATURES
The many other ways that MKAT supports your testing processes:
MKAT software has been created with the primary intention of being simple to use.
Happily, our customers agree with this. MKAT has been rated as "easy to use" by >87% of our customers for the last 4 years.
The security of your data is critical, and we take this as seriously as you do.
MKAT is regularly updated with the latest security patches to tackle and prevent current security vulnerabilities. It also offers improved stability for Windows 10 OS.
Take this long and complex task away from the test engineer, by creating functional test programs automatically.
Using your existing ECAD data, our component library and automated software routines, all the different routes and subtests are automatically calculated in seconds.
MKAT integrates with a wide range of third party sources, scopes and measurement modules, enabling wider testing capability and data management control.
Special test options include fibre optic testing, Databus Test 1553B, 3910, ARINC, CAN; Digital logic test, TDR, FDR and more.
The component library allows you to add your active components for test program inclusion.
Import connection data directly from ECAD export or a spreadsheet.
Data import mapping ensures the right data is automatically selected and imported with the APG is used.
How much time could MKAT save you?
