Abstract :
This paper presents the results of a research project where the combination of techniques of sequence-based requirements specification and model- based statistical testing has been applied to a real mirror control unit of a car door for reliability estimations. A complete chain from a requirements document to a statistical test report with a very high degree of automation is demonstrated. A practical solution for reliability analysis of embedded systems in a realistic industrial setup is proposed.
