Continuous Integration in Validation of Modern, Complex, Embedded Systems

This paper covers the challenges in software validation, especially in the context of complex, embedded systems. Problems related to limited validation environment resources (DUT - Devices Under Test, workload and traffic generators, measurement setups, test probes), stability and complexity of systems will be highlighted. Authors will describe validation strategy which responds to quality assurance and risk management requirements applied for real products provided to the market. Presented technologies covers solutions based on Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery process of modern, complex, embedded systems. Authors present both known and new solutions and approaches to known challenges, also suggest possible further development directions to improve efficiency and optimize product development cost.
