Episode 28: ForeC++ — Test Case Generator

Validas — Tool and Library Qualification

To successfully test a tool or a library, especially in safety-relevant projects, it is crucial to test for all important cases; in some situations, this can become increasingly difficult to do without automation. In this episode Dr. Oscar Slotosch discusses the usage and purpose of test case generators with Jakob Riedle, who has spent the past two years developing ForeC++ — Validas’s own test case generator. Join us to learn about the biggest challenges in creating a test case generator, how these tools can help you comply with safety standards, and what Jakob has done to develop ForeC++ to its current form.
