Master Thesis: Development and Production test system for Tomorrow
Background
At QRTECH, we have a strong focus on developing and delivering products and project with high quality. In order to achieve this we make use of CI/CD as part of our development and delivery process.
As a part of our way-of-working, we have developed a tool used for testing in HIL (Hardware-In-the-Loop) environment. HIL testing is the testing where real HW is used for verifying SW behaviors.
As the hardware normally (but not exclusively) consists of embedded hardware, the testing tool needs to have the ability to interacts with many different hardware interfaces (for example CAN, LIN, Ethernet) Furthermore, the ability to upgrade the testing tool with new interfaces in a flexible and simple way is of major importance.
The tool is also used at our different production sites to verify every product delivered to end customers, which adds some extra complexity. The need for a understandable HMI and interaction with customer data repositories is an absolute must.
Purpose
The main purpose is to investigate how QRTECH can improve our Development and Production test system. While the system we have today has been helping us for the last ten years, we think that it is time to review what we have and take our ideas into the next decade!
The idea of this Master Thesis is:
- Investigate what is the state-of-art of test systems used today. Both for HIL testing and production testing.
- Investigate the current situation at QRTECH Today
- Define the needs for QRTECH Tomorrow
- Suggest a test framework
- Implement some functionality as a proof of concept
Student Background
We believe that this work is best done by two students working together. At least one of you needs to have focus on SW development in order for you to be able to see how the usage of a SW testing tool in the daily work simplifies work as well as increases quality of your deliveries.
Workplace
You will be working at QRTECHs office in Mölndal. If you do not have your own computers we will arrange something for you.
Compensation
Each student will get compensated at a fixed rate upon completion of the thesis.
