Abstract: Testing IoT-applications based on a fleet of IoT-devices is provided. For this purpose, a method includes determining whether a device entry of a device registry matches with a request entry of a request registry, wherein the device entry is indicative of an IoT-device and the request entry is indicative of an IoT-application. The method further includes establishing an executable test case, if the device entry matches with the request entry. Furthermore, the method includes testing the IoT-application, wherein the testing includes executing the executable test case on the IoT-device. Likewise, an IoT platform includes a fleet of IoT-devices and is adapted to perform the previous method.

Abstract: Provided is a method) for data communication between a management level and a field level of an industrial system, including: a data communication module receiving a data query from a management level application on the management level to a field device on the field level; the data communication module transferring the data query from the management level application to the field device; the data communication module receiving response data from the field device to the data query; a checking module of the data communication module checking a data quality of the response data; and if an insufficient data quality is ascertained in the check, the checking module performing a corrective measure in order to correct the defective response data.

Abstract: Provided is a monitoring and controlling unit for use in an autonomous system with self-X properties, including a test data interface for receiving test data, a real data interface for receiving real data, wherein the test data is compared with the real data to determine whether there is a part of new data in the real data, if a part of new data is identified in the real data, the test data is updated with the part of new data and an output interface for sending the updated test data, which can be further processed into at least one executable test. Further, provided is an according autonomous device, an autonomous system, method of self-testing of an autonomous system and computer program.

Abstract: A modeling system is provided. The modeling system includes a test model creator, the test model creator being adapted for providing a test model based on an integrated modeling environment and considering a domain specific profile. The system further includes a test scenario generator, the test scenario generator being adapted for providing a plurality of test scenarios based on the test model, as well as a scenario translator, the scenario translator being adapted for translating the test scenarios, into domain-specific language.

Abstract: A method for automatic testing of a piece of software for a mobile device including the following steps: deriving from a description a formalized description, the description includes possible sequences of events of the software and a range for at least one input parameter of the software, the description being used for an implementation of the software; generating from the formalized description a test description; adapting the test description for the mobile device for which the software is to be tested; translating the test specification in a language assigned to the mobile device such that a test described by the test specification can be performed on the mobile device. The method for automatic testing further relates to a corresponding device.
