Abstract
The limitation of traditional testing tools makes it difficult to test the software of embedded system--the resource insufficiency of the embedded system as well as the strict requirement of real-time all contribute to the unavailability of the normal method for software testing. This document introduced a method about testing of embedded software, which based on code coverage and variable watching by using the software of Testbed and RTInsight. By using this method, it’s effective to validate the software testing of embedded system.
