CANLab

This document provides an overview and user manual for CANLab|setup, a full automation Vector and NI based test environment for instrument cluster and infotainment modules. CANLab reduces human effort in validation testing by processing user confirmation data from CANoe using NI Vision library functions and providing outputs. It allows generation of test cases from requirements documents or spreadsheets, supports CAPL, XML and .NET test scripts, and generates final test reports for analysis. The advantages include supporting various types of validation, easy usage, fast CAN message transceiver without delays, and customizable vision confirmation with CAPL. Hardware requirements include a PC, Vector CancaseXL, image sensors, and an ECU under test. Software requirements include

1.1 Motivation of CANLab|setup


After facing a lot of difficulties with our existing setup and analyzing different
technologies, I have initiated to develop a new automation test environment i.e,
(CANLab|setup).Based on my working experience and other validators requirements
and feedback I have developed the new setup i.e. CANLab

1.2 Need of CANLab

To minimize the human efforts and time consumption on manual black box testing
and semi-Automation bench testing. Automate the user confirmation and validation
of CAN communication for instrument cluster and Infotainment modules.
To increase the accuracy and quality of the block box testing.

1.3 About

It is a full automation Vector and NI based test environment for instrument cluster
and infotainment modules. In brief, Vector CANoe simulation acts as major tool and
CANLab will take the information from CANoe to carry further communication
between these two. CANLab mainly reduces the human effort when the user
confirmation is needed. CANLab uses NI Vision library functions to process the user
confirmative data and will provide output according to Canoe Input.

1.5 Advantages

 This environment can support system and functional validation.


 Easy to work, no need to create special methods for sending CAN data and
Diag services
 It can transceiver the CAN messages without time delay.
 It can support CAPL, XML(TAE) and .NET test scripts.
 Test case creation is user-friendly because it can access CAN DBC.
 We can easily switch between manual, semi and fully automation.
 Failure analysis is too easy.
 Customize of vision with the help of CAPL as per need.
