Quality assurance of diagnostic implementations in motor vehicle ECUs is both time and cost intensive. On the supplier side comprehensive tests accompany a development and numerous regression and release tests are required. The automotive OEM also needs tests for integration and release.
In the automotive industry the Vector CANdela approach is widely used and ECU diagnostic descriptions created with the central tool CANdelaStudio are available for many OEMs. Since then CANoe with its integrated Test Feature Set has become a standard tool in the automotive industry.
The software Option DiVa for CANoe simplifies the test of the implementation and integration of the diagnostic protocol in ECUs for OEMs and suppliers.
