Medical device companies, especially those with real-time embedded-system products, are often burdened with lengthy verification cycles. Even small development efforts can result in months of ...

Testing of embedded System is a great challenge for software testers. Testing of embedded systems is most sophisticated and time consuming task because of its different infrastructure, organizations ...

The current trend is to develop embedded systems using platforms common to many different applications spanning multiple industries, particularly telecommunications. But the advantage gained by using ...

The idea of unit testing has been around for many years. Test early, test often is a mantra that concerns unit testing as well. By using stubs, developers can test code under realistic and controlled ...

With the proliferation of IoT devices come increased embedded security attacks. Historically, embedded system engineers have ignored device-layer security despite the many areas of embedded devices ...

With the explosive growth in the use of microcontrollers, engineers who design products in fields ranging from computers to industrial electronics need to test and debug circuits that include ...

Jack Ganssle puts the Agile Manifesto's James Grenning on the hot seat about test-driven development's suitability for embedded systems. Long used mainly in high integrity environments, new unit test ...

Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing is a technique used to develop and test complex real-time embedded systems. HIL simulation provides an effective testing platform by adding the complexity of the ...

New NI PXI options build on 25 years of test expertise to accelerate system development, streamline integration and boost ...

Testing, alone, cannot find all potential failure points for real-time embedded software, particularly in multithreading environments. In part 2 of Sean Beatty's article on errors that escape ...
