Automotive testing

Modern vehicle cockpits are fully digital communication, entertainment, and navigation systems. Test its reliability and security under varying conditions.

Challenge

Complex communication via multiple networks

Simultaneous communication via 4G/5G, WiFi, Bluetooth, V2X, and backend services.

Real-life instability

Roaming, signal loss, bandwidth fluctuations, latency spikes, or handovers between networks.

Fragmentation

Various IP technologies, legacy interfaces, proprietary systems, and specific implementations.

Security

Secure communication, authentication, encrypted updates, and protection against update failures.

Solution

Automated end-to-end validation

Test communication between cockpit systems, networks, backend services, cloud platforms, and devices automatically.

No simulations

Tests run on real smartphones, routers, infotainment systems, and SIM cards.

Interoperability checks

Validate signaling, APIs, VoIP, Bluetooth, mobile integration, and cross-device communication.

Repeatable regression assurance

Regression tests across firmware versions, device types, network conditions, and software releases.

What we can test

Real devices, no simulations

Instead of using simulators and emulators, our automated test cases run on real devices inside remotely accessible labs. Real communication hardware, SIM cards, telecom networks and infotainment integrations represent reality on a higher level.

Users can execute tests from anywhere via remote lab access. They can interact with the devices the same way manual interaction would allow them to.

This matters because automotive communication failures often appear only under real network conditions, real device behavior, or interoperability scenarios. The QiTASC framework validates exactly these scenarios.
