With the development of society more and more people, the more the growing demand for electricity, so that the facilities of electric power in China will continue to improve and perfect the national Power Grid Corp. Hope that through the integration of various technologies, the formation of technical standards to form the embedded software design and testing of an intelligent electricity, so that the smart meter embedded software testing and analysis ability is enhanced. The existing methods are generally compared to the smart meter embedded software, not from the function of software to carry out the relevant evaluation work, in the study of this paper on characteristics and software testing of embedded software of intelligent computer ring On the basis of environment and strategy analysis, the performance test of embedded software for smart meter is designed
