Exciting use cases and new products took center stage at the EXAM UserDay 2018

On October 24, 2018, the participants at theUserDay in Wolfsburg received a comprehensive update on EXAM: In addition to the roadmap for the test automation solution, the presentations and discussions focused on new products for the efficient use of EXAM, as well as interesting use cases.

Test Cloud Controller and Test Case Generator are now available under a license model

Now available in a license model: The Test Cloud Controller and the Test Case Generator from MicroNova. The new solutions significantly increase the efficiency of the testing process and make it easier to handle the increasing number of tests for new functions in areas such as autonomous driving and car-to-X (C2X) communication.

Battery Management Systems (BMS) play a central role in powering electric and hybrid vehicles, which makes validating them reliably a must for automobile manufacturers. The NovaCarts BMS test systems offer ideal conditions for this thanks to their hardware and software-based simulations.

MicroNova expands its consulting services in the Testing Solutions business unit. The new range of consulting services supports companies across the board in all challenges relating to test processes and management.

The handling of extensive and complex data sets poses increasing challenges for companies. MicroNova can help: Based on the Cluu application platform, the experts have developed an application that can manage and monitor the complete test cycle of ECU protection.

Automotive Ethernet is the communication cornerstone for data-intensive applications when it comes to driver assistance, autonomous driving and infotainment in the latest generation of vehicles. As a member of the OPEN Alliance, MicroNova plays its part in developing BroadR-Reach technology.

The increasing specialization in testing increasingly requires the separation of test case creation and execution. MicroNova's Test Cloud Controller (TCC) automates the worldwide distribution of orders to free resources. This relieves the test engineers and improves the utilization of existing HiL systems.

The development of increasingly autonomous vehicles has various effects, both moral and technical. The Federal Government's Ethics Committee has therefore defined principles for automated and networked vehicles. This article provides an overview of the technical consequences, especially for automotive testing and the NovaCarts XiL platform as a basis for the new test requirements.
