FTAM test design using an automated test tool

To resolve the problem of a large amount of automated test scripts and test data files, through the test tool QTP, data-driven and keyword-driven testing mechanism, a test automation framework based on three layer data-driven mechanism is designed, including the design of the TestSet managing test case files, the design of the TestCase storing test cases and the design of the TestData storing test data.Through controlling the test scale and applying the test data pool, reconfigurable and optimization of test scripts are designed. The methods above can decouple the test design and the script development, make test cases and data show a more humane design, make test scripts and test data on the business level optimized and reusable, and make the number of script files and the test data files reache a minimum, which reduces the occupied space.

The Common

As long as road accidents happen, passive safety systems like the airbag control unit are an essential part of the whole automotive safety system. Within the airbag control unit, the event data recorder (EDR) is an integrated function. Recent developments in legislation show that an increasing number of EDR-related regulations are being introduced. They are mainly focusing on data recording, crash-data retrieval, and some of them define testing aspects. In the system testing of an airbag control unit with a focus on the event data recorder, the question arises of how to deal with the fact that real-world crash events are not “straightforward” but arbitrary and do not follow any rules and restrictions. The purpose of this work is to develop a robust test approach to these conditions—giving a tester the possibility to extend the test depth considering the common test design techniques and testing principles. The applied methodology is the use of optimization algorithms in an automated test environment. With this, the tester can steer the test execution in a predefined way with minimal interaction. The application of the developed test method automatically creates a set of test data which fulfill the predefined conditions by the user. The generated results show that a high number of test data are created at and close to the target condition. Consequently, this test approach provides an extension to the common test design techniques with regard to how test input data can be created, and especially how automated test data creation and test execution can be realized.
