Cantata Use with Wind River® Diab™ Compiler

Cantata Use with Wind River® Diab™ Compiler

This Technical Note provides information on how to successfully install and set up Cantata for use with the Wind River® Diab™ (v5.9.3) environment using the dcc compiler. This document also describes a workflow that outlines how Cantata can be used with this deployment – however, due to its flexible nature, other ways of using Cantata with this deployment are also possible. It has been assumed that the default installations are in C:\Windriver and C:\qa_systems and that the deployment is targeting an MPC56xx chip. Any differences to these assumptions may require appropriate changes to what is stated in this document.

Presentation: Beyond Requirements-Based Testing for ISO 26262

At ATC ISO 26262 (an online event hosted in China) Matt Davis the Director of QA Systems in the UK, presented a talk on Beyond Requirements Based Testing for ISO 26262. In this talk, Davis focuses on achieving a demonstration that there are no undesired functionality or functional safety properties. This goes beyond requirements, specifications, and testing, ensuring the safety measures are correctly implemented and comply with the architecture and level unit design.

This talk will help you understand the ISO 26262 unit, integration-level testing objectives and processes, and requirements-based testing.

You will also learn:

– How to apply techniques for Control Flow and data Flow verification, Equivalence Partitions, Boundary Values and Structural Code Coverage with Interface tests, Fault Injection tests and Resource Usage tests.

– What to look out for in tools supporting these activities, and see a practical example of fault injection through interface interception test performed HiL.

WEBINAR: Requirements-Based Testing Automation and ISO 26262 Compliance in Automotive Development

Due to the volume of testing necessary in automotive embedded development, the efficiency of testing processes is vital. Requirements-based testing is a key QA method that helps ensure high product quality with minimal costs, and compliance with automotive regulations such as ISO 26262.

Learn About:

– Deriving test cases from requirements, and automating testing processes
– Test framework & test case generation, test execution, results diagnostics and report generation
– Achieving lifecycle-wide traceability from requirements down to executed unit tests
– Seamless integration of QA Systems and Intland Software tools
– Significantly reducing the risks, time, and costs of ISO 26262 compliance.

Cantata Use with Wind River® Workbench

Cantata Use with Wind River® Workbench

This Technical Note provides the information to help set up and install Cantata into an existing Wind River® Workbench installation. This information is correct for Cantata 6.2 and using Wind River Workbench 3.3.2 and 3.3.3. It must also be applicable to other versions, however this is not tested.

Cantata Adding Extra Information to Reports

Cantata Adding Extra Information to Reports

This Technical Note provides step by step instructions for users to add extra information in Cantata Test Scripts and to format this for inclusion in Cantata Test Reports. This information may be useful in generated test reports to meet requirements which are specific to your organisation.

Instructions are given for how to add new text elements to the generated results files and for how to configure the display of these text elements in the Cantata Full HTML Test Report. The instructions for changing and storing XLST files are also applicable, should you wish to add the Cantata HTML Test Report styles included in the Cantata Report Viewer. The document is not intended to be used as a replacement for the manuals and other documentation supplied with Cantata. It should be used in combination with these to best utilise Cantata within your environment.

Seminar: Efficient Unit and Integration Testing of Safety-Critical Code, Beyond xUnit Tools

This in-depth seminar covers efficient unit and integration testing techniques for safety-critical code where failures can be catastrophic. Matt Davis, Managing Director of QA System,s highlights the limitations of open-source XUnit frameworks like JUnit and Google Test for these use cases. He demonstrates how Cantata, a commercial tool, enables automated test generation, white-box testing, call interception, and error injection, achieving mandated coverage metrics, requirements traceability, CI/CD integration, and certification/qualification for safety-critical industries. The video also introduces Cantata Hybrid for using Google Tests while generating standards-compliant evidence. Invaluable for developing life-critical systems or improving testing practices.

Seminar: Maximizing FuSa Standards Compliant Software Test Automation

During the collaborative effort with NOHAU, a leading reseller of QA Systems in the Nordic region, attendants to the seminar delved into the realm of optimizing software test automation to meet the highest safety standards for Functional Safety (FuSa).

Cantata has been diligently certified to adhere to the most stringent safety integrity levels across all FuSa standards. Here are the key benefits and functionalities that Matt Davis highlighted during the presentation:
