Test
Compiler®
The Test Compiler®
is the Ultimate Control Logic Validation Tool.
Increasingly
stringent standards for software validation in Safety Systems emphasize the need
for a modern approach to testing and validation. In order to satisfy both test
quality and cost, an integrated approach to logic certification must be
implemented throughout the program development life cycle. Furthermore, initial
testing efforts should give consideration to a streamlined process of periodical
re-certification.
The Test Compiler Suite uses an intuitive Excel®
front end and enables automated testing of the
entire control configuration, based
on a Cause and Effect matrix or
similar. The program will connect to your offline SIS/ESD, or any combination of
control platforms.
Based on each tests, the Test Compiler will
- write a prescribed set of
inputs (field inputs, or causes) to the controller
- read the respective set of outputs
(controller actions, or effects)
- compare it to the "expected state table", documenting
any discrepancies in a HTML log
file and documenting each test in an practical, exploitable HTML
format.
