Abstract: A development device and a method for creating and testing a control unit program, whereby the preparation of an intervention point for manipulating a quantity of a runtime environment for testing a control unit program component in a test environment having a test scenario program component and an observation device for receiving output values and indicating the test result. An executable program containing all program components is created from one or more program components, including a control unit program component that is to be tested and a test scenario program component. The creation includes generation of a runtime environment, wherein the runtime environment provides a communication channel for transmitting input and output values between the program components, and wherein a component test service is provided that offers an interface to the runtime environment pursuant to the AUTOSAR standard as an intervention point for manipulating a quantity of the runtime environment.
