A test monitor loaded into a multiprocessor machine comprises a program ( 31 ) designed to interpret a script language for writing tests, a program ( 29 ) that constitutes a kernel part for conducting the tests according to the scripts, and a library ( 30 ) of functions that constitutes an application program interface with the firmware of the machine 1 . This monitor implements a method for executing instruction sequences simultaneously in several processors ( 3, 4, 5 ) of a multiprocessor machine ( 1 ). The method comprises a first step ( 8 ) in which a single processor operating system is booted in a first processor ( 2 ) and a second step ( 9 ) in which the first processor ( 1 ) orders at least one other processor ( 3 ) of the machine, called an application processor, to execute one or more instruction sequences ( 17, 18, 19 ) under the control of said first processor.
