Improvement of process architecture through configuration & change management and enhanced test strategies for a knowledge-based test path generator

Objective

DTK is developing a knowledge-based test path generator for safety relevant analogous hardware components for the use in the railway environment. High transparency, high traceability up to the developer in the case of incidents and very high product quality is required. It will be demonstrated how the process architecture for this test path generator can be improved by applying configuration & change management methods as well as enhanced test strategies.

THE EXPERIMENT
The development process shall be significantly improved by focusing on two key areas of SPI: testing and configuration & change management. Thus the PIE will deal with the following:

1. Introducing configuration & change management techniques and tools,
2. Introducing systematic testing methods and procedures, supported by suitable tools.

The PIE will concentrate on that part of the software that is already multiply reused under different configurations. This part would benefit most and has the most significance for the successful evaluation of techniques and tools. It will be referred to as the baseline project.

EXPECTED IMPACT AND EXPERIENCE
DTK expects to gain know-how on optimising its software development process with respect to configuration & change management and testing. Improved effort, time and cost estimations and planning of future projects will be achieved through enhanced test strategies, reliable managing of software documents as well as fast handling of change requests.
