Testautomatisering för motorstyrenhet

Abstract

The intent of this project was to produce an automated testchain, and to develop functionality, for a motor control unit for an electric motor. The purpose of the testchain is to make it possible to run tests from computers that are not connected to the testing equipment and to save time by automating some testing procedures. The work has been done in collaboration with the consulting company Infotiv AB and all development was performed at their offices in Gothenburg. The project has resulted in that developing new functionality for the motor control unit can now be done more efficiently. The reason for this is that all developers working on the unit can now start tests that will run in a dedicated testing environment, from their own personal computers. This test automation has been developed with the help of the automation server Jenkins. The tests have been implemented in Robot Framework which is a framework for acceptance testing, which means the type of testing that verifies that the software meets the customer specifications.
