A method of transferring storage devices within a storage device testing system includes receiving storage device information of storage devices presented for testing, querying at least one rack having test slots to obtain test slot servicing information, determining a servicing routine based on the storage device information and the test slot servicing information, and producing a command routine for executing the servicing routine. The command routine includes a sequence of automation moves for execution by an automated transporter. Producing the command routine includes executing at least one of a time-based enhancement and a sequence-based enhancement on the command routine. The time-based enhancement includes selecting a second automation move based on a start location of the second automation move and an end location of a sequentially preceding first automation move. The sequence-based enhancement includes producing a reduced sequence of automation moves for one or more storage device transfers. |
