METHOD AND DEVICE FOR TESTING A SYSTEM COMPRISING AT LEAST A PLURALITY OF SOFTWARE UNITS THAT CAN BE EXECUTED SIMULTANEOUSLY

摘要

According to the invention, a programmable operating time period of at least one software unit is changed to a settable operating time period. Furthermore, a test means for validating the system and for setting the at least one settable operating time period is provided. Furthermore, the system is tested by means of the test means, wherein the testing includes varying the at least one settable operating time period for detecting synchronization errors of the system. Thus, a test of a system comprising software units for synchronization errors is enabled by the targeted change of operating time period. A block diagram for a corresponding device, flow charts for corresponding methods, and a computer program product for carrying out such a method are provided.
