Offline Analysis of Independent Guarded Assertions in Automotive Integration Testing
Publication Type:
Conference/Workshop Paper
Venue:
12th IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON EMBEDDED SOFTWARE AND SYSTEMS
Abstract
The size and complexity of software in automotive
systems have increased steadily over the last decades. Modern
vehicles typically contain numerous electrical control units
(ECUs), and more and more features require real-time interaction
between several dedicated ECUs (e.g., gearbox, brake and engine
control units) in order to perform their tasks. Since system
safety and reliability must not be adversely affected by this
increase in complexity, proper quality assurance is a must.
Such quality assurance is often performed by testing the system
in different levels of integration throughout the development
process. However, the growth of complexity of the system under
test aslo affects the testing, making it laborious, difficult and
costly.
This paper presents a novel method for efficient offline analysis
of traces, which has been especially tailored for integration testing
of automotive systems. The method exploits the recently defined
concept of independent guarded assertion in order to formally
describe the events that are relevant for the analysis as well
as the expected behavior in those events. The offline analysis is
implemented using a standard commercial model checker and
has shown good performance in the conducted experiments.
