Porsche Engineering enables complete automation of bench tests for new digital functions

London, 20 August, 2023, (Oilandgaspress) –A new concept from Porsche in which continuous integration automates not only the tests, but also the accompanying processes. This increases the efficiency of functional testing for Porsche Connect services.

Upgrading the equipment in a Porsche and easily adding optional functions via software—this is possible thanks to the digital services of Porsche Connect. This gives drivers access to a wealth of additional functions that support them before, during, and after their journey. For example, if drivers so choose, they can easily add active lane guidance for even safer driving or an intelligent management function that adjusts the climate and speed settings to the electric vehicle’s remaining range. To ensure that the features are integrated smoothly into the vehicle system and that the many different services work seamlessly together, an international test team of around 110 employees at Porsche Engineering verifies the software for all Porsche model lines and individual models before it enters the vehicle.During the tests, it is examined whether the software reacts as specified to various situations generated by the simulation. “Based on the results of these basic functional tests, known as smoke tests, the experts at Porsche Engineering decide how the further test sequences should be structured,” explains Klauber. These examinations are conducted at different locations around the world to test market-specific functions.
