ZF integrated TestWeaver into its development and test process for hybrid drivetrain control software. The integration included virtual integration and testing using ZF Softcar and TestWeaver, plus validation of system requirements from DOORS and Excel as system invariants. Thousands of driving scenarios are systematically generated and analyzed, with system requirements permanently supervised.Martin Neumann, Mario Nass, Carsten Paulus, Mugur Tatar: Absicherung von Steuerungssoftware für Hybridsysteme, 5.
