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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Manufacturers can now validate embedded vision devices reliably, ensuring consistent performance in automotive, industrial, ...

Testing electronic circuits has been an important topic in the industry since the first transistor was developed, and today it is as relevant as ever. Test strategies are graded by how close they come ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

When Daniel Graham, an associate professor in the University of Virginia School of Data Science, talks about the future of ...
