Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for the generation of automatic software tests for complex software systems, such as operating systems (OS) and/or systems that may be implemented as part of an autonomous vehicle (AV) or advanced driving assistance system (ADAS). The technique generates tests using a tool, such as a stressor, which stresses a particular system under test in multiple ways. For every run of the stressor, the functions of the system that are invoked during the test are captured. A check is then performed to determine if this set of functions corresponds to one of the test scenarios for which testing is desired. If the set of functions that were invoked matches the set of functions that defines the test, then the configuration of the stressor is stored, and this stressor configuration is considered as the test for a particular scenario.

Abstract: Described is an apparatus comprising: a processor operable to execute a virtual machine manager (VMM) which is to manage a virtual machine (VM) for a hardware intellectual property (IP) block; a communication fabric; and a hardware IP block coupled to the processor via the communication fabric, wherein the hardware IP block is to be coupled to a first set of one or more sensors, and wherein the VM and the hardware IP block are operable to process data collected from the first set.
