Development of software interface for testing of embedded system

摘要

Testing of embedded devices is a big challenge in a changing and competitive technical environment, as testing of one embedded application is not similar to another. For testing of embedded system generic middleware, device driver and operating systems are required and ruled over target hardware for the execution. Companies developing products based on embedded systems understand the fact that high quality and unique application software plays an important role in the differentiation of their products from their competitors. This generic interface can test the various services of the embedded system, and supports unit test and integration test which are based system testing technology. By using generic interface in the target embedded platform to do testing the results show that our constructed testing interface is workable. This paper, in the perspective of software solution, presents a generic API for testing the target embedded system.
