The concept of Continuous Integration (CI) is a powerful tool in software development, and it’s not every day we get a look at how someone integrated automated hardware testing into their system.

Electronic control units (ECUs) are vital embedded systems in vehicles; as such they impact numerous functions in a car and therefore must undergo rigorous testing. In any test workflow, ...

The growing threat of cyberinfrastructure intrusions from hostile actors is leading to the creation of new security testing mechanisms for the Internet of Things (IoT) software and hardware. That will ...

Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing enhances the verification of ECUs by simulating real-world conditions using digital twins. The key benefits of an integrated HIL testing platform include accelerated ...

Bermondsey Electronics, an embedded systems design and test house, has witnessed first-hand the many trials and tribulations engineers have encountered when testing hardware and software during design ...

Testing software is — sometimes — easier than testing hardware. After all, you can always create test files and even fake user input before monitoring outputs using common tools. Hardware though, is a ...

Scrum has become a popular method for developing and designing software. And why not? There’s clear evidence it improves the resulting software’s quality, shortens time to market, and even increases ...

Key elements that drive a battery-cell tester. Three main architectures used to construct a tester. Battery-cell testers are commercially available at many different levels of performance. Performance ...

Electronic systems comprise both hardware and software. Which functions are implemented with hardware and which with software are decisions made based upon a wide variety of considerations, including ...
