Methodology for building the optimal test bench of software and hardware complexes of control systems

The paper considers the issue of creating unified approaches to building test stands for software and hardware control systems. A universal architecture of the test bench is proposed and the author's method of constructing optimal test stands, obtained as a result of research in the field of complex automation of the test process, is described. The algorithm of directed search for the best test stand configuration is considered by example and the results of the implementation of the proposed method are demonstrated. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd
