Challenge

A leading embedded technology solutions provider tested firmware and devices across many hardware variants.

Testing relied on engineers manually operating devices, which was slow and difficult to scale:

Manual testing on physical devices.
Many hardware variants to cover.
Long test cycles delaying releases.
Inconsistent test execution.

The company wanted to automate embedded testing across its product lines.

Solution

Winklix deployed its embedded test automation platform and framework.

Test bench automation

Hardware-in-the-loop benches allow devices to be controlled and tested automatically.

Reusable test library

Test cases were built once and reused across hardware variants.

Continuous testing

Firmware builds trigger automated test runs.

Results analysis

Dashboards show results and trends across devices and builds.
