• Using SCADE for model-based tests and executing the scripts on the Simulator and on Target. Artifacts created are configured using IBM Synergy.
• Involving in data coupling to improve code efficiency by reducing the memory usage and control coupling activities to identify the gaps in the integration testing and ensure 100% test coverage.
• Guaranteed Structural Coverage Analysis by using RTRT tool and analyze the coverage gaps.
• Using LDRA tool for call tree generation and to generate Static analysis Report for the source code to check code compliance as per MISRA:2004 standards.
• Creating Software Verification Test Results which includes the summary of formal runs with PASS/FAIL status of the test cases.
• Successfully completed the SOI3 audits.
• Tools & Technologies: Embedded C, Batch Scripting, Java Scripting, RTRT, LDRA, SCADE, DOORS, Spectrum Digital XDS560V2 STM JTAG Emulator, Synergy CR, Synergy CM, TMS570 processor, Code Composer Studio.
