Assessing and improving testing of real-time software using simulation
Joel E. Henry, Josh C. Stiff, Aric J Shirar · Annual Simulation Symposium · 2003
Simulation testing of real-time software provides great advantages in cost savings, early error detection, and requirements clarification prior to development and hardware/software integration testing. However, simulation testing must exercise the software in ways that accurately represent the deployment environment and cover a broad range of operational scenarios. In this paper we will describe a method for developing simulation tests, evaluating simulation test results, and utilizing the test evaluation to implement improvements in simulation testing.
