Abstract:
The strong demand for customizable products is leading to increase variability in cyber-physical systems. The need of dealing with variability issues increases complexity not only in the product, but also in the verification and validation activities. Due to the high amount of configurations that the system can be set to, verification and validation activities might become time consuming and non-systematic. In order to deal with these problems, this paper presents an automatically configurable test architecture together with a model-based process for the systematic validation of highly configurable cyber-physical systems, with the main objective of reducing verification and validation costs. The main contributions of this paper are the analysis of the variability of the test system and its components together with the traceability among the features of the cyber-physical system and the test system and a definition of a model-based process to achieve the test objectives.
