System and method for testing handovers in a mobile communication network and for displaying the results

A test procedure control unit (5) outputs control information including time setting information along a procedure for carrying out a transition test of a connection state of a mobile communication terminal UE (1) of a cellular system. A transmitting/receiving unit (3) transmits a plurality of test signals corresponding to a plurality of cells toward the UE (1) in accordance with the control information, and receives a response signal from the UE (1). A reception measurement unit (4) measures a transition time of the connection state among the cells of the UE (1), which is a time when the UE (1) switches from a state of receiving one test signal of the plurality of test signals to a state of receiving another test signal, in accordance with the response signal. A deciding unit (6) receives a measured result of the transition time, and decides whether or not the connection state of the UE is transiting among the plurality of cells in the cellular system in accordance with the scheduled time-passage. The indicating unit (8) causes the display unit (7) to indicate, as the result of the transition test of the connection state of the UE (1), the decided result of the connection state and the transition among the cells of the connection state of the UE (1) in accordance with the time-passage, so as to be visually recognizable on a single coordinate.
