Abstract: A method for performing configuration of a control unit test system with hardware components connected thereto, wherein control units can be tested with the test system in an environment simulated by the test system by means of a model, and wherein the test system comprises at least one computer, in particular a computer executing the model, as well as hardware components, connected to one another by means of at least one network, in which at least a portion of the hardware components comprises a dedicated server (MIS) that, by means of communication, provides access to the configuration data associated with the hardware component, in particular stored in the hardware component, and the model and/or the hardware component is adapted, in particular configured, as a function of the configuration data that are made accessible.

Abstract: A method for performing an inventory of the hardware components connected to a control unit test system, wherein control units can be tested with the test system in an environment simulated by the test system by means of a model, and wherein the test system comprises at least one computer) and hardware components that are connected to one another by means of at least one network. For at least a portion of the hardware components, in particular of all simulation-specific hardware components, at least one item of component information that uniquely and digitally identifies the hardware component is read therefrom, and all identifying component information that has been read out is stored.
