Metric Driven Validation, Verification and Test of Embedded Software

Today’s complexity of embedded systems is steadily increasing. The growing number of components in a system and the increased communication and synchronization of all components requires reliable verification, validation and testing of each component as well as the system as a whole. Considering today’s cost sensitivity it is important to find errors as early as possible and to increase the degree of test automation to avoid quality losses because of the increased cost pressure.
