Build E/E platforms that adapt, evolve, and stay secure.

As OEMs are moving towards Software-Defined Vehicles (SDVs) and Software-driven development cycles, applications on the ECUs are becoming more complex. An agile software development process requires a stable and reliable platform, as early as possible, to be able to develop and test these increasingly complex applications.

At Technica Engineering, we define the E/E or ECU platfrom as the basic stack running on the ECU, on which Network communication, Routing, Timesync, Lifecycle, etc. are working in a stable manner. Technica Engineering has specialized on platform testing, our services are covering classic ECUs, HPC platforms and also complete E/E systems.

What we help you solve

Detect performance bottlenecks and instabilities early in the development / integration process (Shift-left)
Quality assurance in a distributed, agile software development process

Leverage the full Technica expertise for your project

Optimize your processes and testing strategy with our know-how and a fully integrated ecosystem, matured over more than 10 years.

Functional Scope in E/E Platform Testing

We validate the E/E platform as the technical foundation of the E/E architecture — the basis on which all vehicle functions reliably build.

Lifecycle management
Network management, network power management, vehicle state management, wake-up management
Flashing / Programming
Acceptance testing, direct flashing, gateway flashing
Network Communication
Automotive Ethernet communication, legacy bus communication (CAN, LIN, FlexRay, …), IP, TCP, UDP, physical layer testing
Infotainment Protocols
e.g. HTTP, OEM-specific protocols
Over-the-Air Updates (OTA)
Flashing of individual ECUs as well as complete vehicles, backend connectivity
Network applications
SOME/IP, IP-based communication, etc.
Routing
Message gatewaying across different IVN technologies, gateway diagnostics
Time Synchronization
Grandmaster, slave and bridge ECUs, various protocols and standards (PTP, PTPv2, …)
Application Platforms
Testing for Adaptive and Classic AUTOSAR platforms, OEM-specific platforms, Linux, QNX, Android
(Cyber) security
MACsec, TLS, IPsec, firewalling, SecOC, OEM-specific security mechanisms
Hardware / Software Integration and Functional Safety (FuSa)
Diagnostics
UDS, DTC-Handling, etc.

Let’s Validate the Details That Define the Driving Experience 

Your customers may never think about the software platform — but they are directly affected by small bugs that affect multiple applications. With Technica Engineering’s E/E platform testing services, you can ensure that your applications will run on a stable basis.
