László Nagy, Electrical engineer, I graduated at Budapest University of Technology and Economics in 2008. In the same year I started my professional life as test and development engineer at Continental Hungary Kft being responsible for all aspects of stress test stations on all production lines of electronic brake system ECUs worldwide including test software maintenance and development. In 2013 I joined Robert Bosch Kft as a software test engineer and later became team leader. Besides testing my main responsibilities are coordinating test activities for transmission control unit software, including test planning, test monitoring, test controlling.

Test Automation of Safety Critical Software in the Automotive Industry

In the automotive industry standards specify how to derive software test cases and customers are continuously requesting 100% software requirement test coverage. With our hands binded in many areas we focus our efforts on test automation, combining off-the-shelf framworks with own solutions.

The failure of some products in the automotive industry could result in loss of life, significant property damage, or damage to the environment. Automatic transmission systems and their electrical control units are one of these safety critical systems, for which standards define framework for testing.

Serving the dynamical requests of our customers and keeping the quality requirements at the same time puts us performing high number of regression tests for hundreds of safety related software requirements in a short time. To be able to fulfil all these expectation automated test case development proved to be the right choice.
