Master Thesis: Automated Testing on Development Hardware

At Magna Electronics, we are at the forefront of developing and manufacturing cutting-edge products such as cameras, radar, and other sensors for modern vehicles. Our mission is to lead the way in Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and the future of autonomous cars.

A thesis internship at Magna offers students the opportunity to delve into a high-tech automotive company. Throughout your internship, you will receive mentorship and guidance, allowing you to apply your theoretical knowledge to practical, real-world scenarios.

Subject: 
Automated Testing on Development Hardware for Enhanced Reliability

Background:
Automatic testing is crucial for ensuring the reliability and performance of development tools used for hardware bring-up. As these hardware designs evolve, ensuring their robustness and reliability through comprehensive testing is essential before they are incorporated into final products. Automated testing can streamline verification processes, identify faults early, and significantly enhance the reliability of development hardware.

Purpose:
To evaluate different automated testing frameworks and implement the most suitable one for development hardware, aimed at improving reliability and reducing development time.

Field: 
Embedded Systems, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering

Learning objectives:

• Implement the selected testing framework
  
• Build and configure the necessary test equipment for automated testing
• Identify and address challenges in deploying automated tests on development systems
• Evaluate the impact of automated testing on the reliability and development efficiency of hardware components
