Abstract. Today, adaptable and distributed component based systems need to be checked and validated in order to ensure their correctness and trustworthiness when dynamic changes occur. Traditional testing techniques can not be used since they are applied during the development phase. Therefore, runtime testing is emerging as a novel solution for the validation of highly dynamic systems at runtime. In this paper, we illustrate how a platform independent test system based on the TTCN-3 standard can be used to execute runtime tests. The proposed test system is called TT4RT: TTCN-3 test system for Runtime Testing. A case study in the telemedicine field is used as an illustration to show the relevance of the proposed test system.

A Micro-Kernel Test Engine for Automatic Test System

Abstract-In traditional automatic test solutions, a testengine usually encompasses all functions in its kernel, including compiling test program, generating test event chain, scheduling test process and executing test events. This makes the engine tightly coupled with test language and the system under test, so that it is difficult to maintain, optimize and extend the test engine. In order to solve these problems, a micro-kernel test engine is designed and implemented based on the service oriented architecture. This microkernel approach decouples function modules to make the test engine kernel independent of the system under test and the test language. This also makes the test engine more modularized, so that the debugging process and maintenance work of the engine can be much easier. With new compiling component and test adapters, the engine kernel can be extended for new test methods or reused in new test applications. The application example and extensibility analysis discussed in section 6 show the feasibility of this micro-kernel test engine.Index Terms-automatic test system, test engine, microkernel, service oriented architecture

“…Embedded software testing has been studied in the last few years and a number of approaches can be found [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24]. Some dynamic testing strategies are proposed for specific platforms [17][18][19][20]24].…”

Static analysis can be a valuable strategy to improve the quality of embedded software at a lower development cost. In this paper, we have surveyed ten different free/open source tools that perform static software analysis and evaluated their use in embedded software. Experimental results show that the studied tools present widely different results, and most of them are not ready to be applied to embedded systems. Furthermore, we discuss possible directions to improve the use of static analysis tools in the embedded domain.
