White paper: Unit test solution for ISO 26262

2011-06-15
This paper is intended to serve as a reference to show how Cantata++ can be used to satisfy the verification and validation requirements of the draft international standard ISO 26262 "Road vehicles — Functional safety".

In particular it addresses the followingsections of the standard:

  • Part 6: Product Development – Software Level
  • Part 8: Supporting Processes (Section 11 Qualification of software tools)

This paper should be read in conjunction with the standard which is referred to throughout this paper as ISO 26262. The rest of this paper consists of three parts:

  • Section 2 provides an overview of Cantata++ intelligent testing capabilities andlinks to current tool information. From supporting software unit design and implementation, software unit and software integration testing to verification of software safety requirements, Cantata++ allows automotive engineers to prove their code for all ISO 26262 Automotive Safety Integrity Levels (ASIL).
  • Section 3 traces the requirements of ISO 26262-Part 6, identifying the scope ofthose which are supported by Cantata++ and documents how the requirements are supported by Cantata++.
  • Section 4 traces the requirements of ISO 26262-Part 8, section 11, identifying theCantata++ tool qualification evidence of suitability for use in the activities defined in ISO 26262-Part 6. A Cantata++ Tool Qualification Package containing all necessary tool qualification evidence (together with the automatically produced tool deployment zip) is available free of charge from your supplier.

If you have any questions on Cantata++ or its suitability for use for ISO 26262, please contact us.
