内容説明
The book provides a practical and comprehensive overview of how to test embedded software.
The book describes how embedded systems can be tested in a structured, controlled way.
The first complete description of all necessary ingredients of a testing process.
It includes classic as well as modern test design techniques.
The described approach is useful in real-life situations of 'limited time and resources.
Technology:More and more our society is pervaded by embedded software: cars, telecom, home entertainment devices are full of software. Embedded systems are becoming larger and more complex with an increasing amount of software, leading to a growing need for a structured testing method which helps to tackle the typical problems in embedded software testing.
Audience:
Managers or team leaders that are responsible for development and/or testing of embedded software and systems. Also, people who actually perform the primary software testing activities.
User level:
Intermediate.
Bart Broekman has been a software test practitioner since 1990. He participated in European embedded software research projects (ITEA) and is co-author of a book on test automation.
Edwin Notenboom has been a professional tester at Sogeti for six years. Together with Bart Broekman, he participated in a european ITEA project on embedded systems since February 1999.
