EN 50128 gives a general guidance for testing railway safety-critical software. However, it does not specify how to test safety-critical software in an agile development environment. Based on our observation, agile software development has not been applied to the development of the Chinese Train Control System (CTCS). Previous research focused on agile methods for managing and planning safety-critical software development. There exists little research about agile testing for developing railway safety-critical software in the literature.
