Connected Vehicle Testing Challenges - At Each Layer
Connected Vehicle Testing Challenges
Network and Data Limitations
- L1: Testing network conditions on benches is not feasible, limiting comprehensive validation
- L2: Advanced network simulation tools are often inaccessible, affecting the thoroughness of connectivity testing
Shift Right Testing
The System testing is increasingly delayed ("shift right") due to siloed testing approaches. This causes integration issues and inefficiencies, making it harder to identify and resolve problems early in the development cycle.
Load and Performance Testing
Inability to go beyond small loads: Load and performance testing is often limited to a few vehicles and relies on Tier-1 reports.
Cloud-Related Issues: Problems related to cloud infrastructure, including lack of cost monitoring, are not adequately addressed.
Troubleshooting Production Issues
Complexity and Time: Identifying and troubleshooting production issues is time-consuming due to the capability to reproduce and the complexity of the different system layers. This impacts overall efficiency and increases downtime.
Vehicle Variance Bottlenecks
Variability in vehicle configurations presents significant challenges in validation, particularly for L3 and L4 levels. This bottleneck limits the ability to ensure consistent performance across different vehicle models.
Multiplied Complexity with SDVs
Distributed services across computers—vehicle, cloud, mobile; multiple applications cutting across vehicle subsystems; Big Data (high-frequency telemetry, video, binary data); frequent updates of interconnected services; and Backward compatibility for multiple generations of vehicles.
End-to-end Automation
End-to-end automation is not possible, and testing is mostly manual. Automation is complex due to its dependencies on physical devices and vehicles.
Repetitive Tasks and HandOffs
Repetitive tasks and handoffs between layers lead to inefficiencies and cost overheads.
