Business Goals
Accelerate Development, Verification, Validation, and Delivery of Design Prototypes.
- Assess feasibility for test automation.
- Improve communication, service discovery, and overall functionality within the automotive system.
- Align OEM software test items with Ethernet protocol standard items.
- Implement ‘Profile 4’ safety mechanism for End-to-End (E2E) in CAPL as per AUTOSAR standard.
- Address Complexity in Client/Server Ethernet concept for a single CAPL Program.
Solution
Modernized workflow with a one-click tool, automating model design and testing for enhanced efficiency.
- Employed advanced in-house CAPL functions within vTESTstudio, enabling seamless auto code implementation and conducting comprehensive feasibility assessments.
- Leveraging the SOME/IP SD concept, we enhanced communication, service discovery, and system functionality remarkably.
- Thoroughly investigated AUTOSAR standards and client specifications, ensuring precision in software implementation strategies.
- Strategically divided complex modules, enabling targeted creation of simplified auto code creation.
- Harnessing the power of PYTHON scripting, we expedited testing processes by creating an Ethernet communication matrix.
Outcomes
- Enabled universal usage of the generic auto code for all Ethernet protocol tests.
- Incorporated safety standards (ASIL) into the auto code, meeting client software delivery requirements.
- Diagnosed and improved Ethernet interface software for efficient frame data transfer.
- Optimized auto code facilitated the selection of suitable Ethernet network hardware modules like VT6306 and VN5610A, ensuring proper Ethernet communication.
