Agile Model-Based Software Development and Agile Model Testing

Developing embedded software according to agile principles while meeting functional safety standards is possible.In this webinar, we showed how it can be achieved.

We take a closer look at the current state-of-the-art approach for embedded applications. namely model-based software development.

In the automotive industry, defined processes, methods, and established toolchains ensure compliance. They ensure high quality and meet functional safety requirements for developed applications.

Best practices in general software development, on the other hand, recommend agile methods over strict waterfall models. Agile methods help teams better cope with real-world challenges such as unclear requirements or last-minute specification changes.

Introducing agile methods into the process-driven software development of safety-relevant functions can make these processes more efficient. They also become more robust against real-world challenges without compromising safety standards.

Automatically controlled toolchains, e.g. using Jenkins, handle a large part of the inspection and test routines. They support quality assurance and ensure compliance with ISO 26262.

In this webinar, we looked at concepts and best practices for agile model-based software development in compliance with ISO 26262.
