Automated test program generation for automotive devices

A code generator is developed to produce automotive ATE programs from a tester-independent test specification. Requirements and features of the specification interface which were necessary for successful automated program generation are discussed. Generated tests are evaluated on tester hardware and found to be production-worthy. Results and advantages of the approach are observed in practice.
