MBSE and Model-Based Testing with Capella

This webinar was held on Tursday, April 21st. Discover the replay:

Nowadays, we are surrounded by system of systems, autonomous systems, interconnected systems or distributed heterogeneous systems with an increase in architecture complexity. Keeping these systems operational is a challenge as the number of potential failures which may affect their availability also increases drastically. In order to optimize availability, maintenance activities have to be designed within the design phase of the system.

Whatever the implementation choice, detection, diagnostic or prevention of failures require tests.

The goal for autonomous systems also pushes towards embedded detection and prevention capabilities and thus arguing and decision making between system engineers and maintenance engineers to share solutions in their respective activities.

In this presentation, we talk about the ability of a system designed with Capella to be tested : what are the interconnections between engineering domains of system design, Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Safety assessment and test design (Testability) and how to design maintenance tests.

We present how a MBSE approach with Capella can be used to initiate a testability study performed with the eXpress tool from DSI International.
