What about Safety-Critical Systems?¶
One of LoopCheck's unique strengths is its ability to support safety-qualified testing environments. Depending on customer requirements, we support qualification activities for safety-critical applications.
Automated, reproducible hardware-in-the-loop tests map directly onto the verification side of the safety lifecycle: deterministic fault injection, repeatable test evidence and traceable results are exactly what functional-safety standards ask for during integration and verification.
Typical industries and standards¶
Every domain has its own functional-safety framework. LoopCheck is prepared to produce test evidence that fits into these processes:
| Industry | Typical standard |
|---|---|
| Automotive | ISO 26262 (functional safety) |
| Railway | EN 50128 / EN 50657, EN 50129 |
| Industrial automation | IEC 61508 |
| Medical devices | IEC 62304, ISO 14971 |
| Aerospace | DO-178C |
The relevant standard and safety integrity level (e.g. ASIL, SIL, DAL) are agreed per project and drive how much documentation and rigor the test setup provides.
Our services include¶
To fit into a qualified development process, a test platform has to do more than run tests. We support the surrounding activities:
- Hardware documentation — described and versioned test hardware
- Traceability — linking requirements, test cases and results
- Verification support — reproducible test execution and evidence
- Qualification support — assistance with tool and test-environment qualification
- Safety lifecycle integration — fitting testing into your V-model process
You can rely on a platform specifically prepared for safety-critical environments.
