Automated Software Testing for Automotive
Automation Intelligence (Eggplant Test) for automotive HMI test automation, infotainment validation, and ADAS software testing. ISO 26262 evidence generation across embedded, connected, and AI-enabled vehicle systems.
Reduce Cost & ComplexityAI-driven, reusable models reduce testing costs and complexity, automates compliance and regression testing, and ensures consistent driver experiences by validating dashboards, alerts, and HMI displays.
Ensure SafetyOur AI-driven automation tests HMI systems the way a real driver would– pressing buttons, reading displays, and validating every response. You'll speed up testing cycles, cut down on errors, and deliver safer, more reliable automotive software faster.
Release QuickerAutomate the toughest aspects of HMI testing, validating every configuration, testing infotainment, ADAS, and connected systems in real-world conditions, and ensuring compliance with legal and safety requirements, while accelerating releases and staying audit-ready.
Accelerate Delivery & ScaleSeamless integration with CI/CD pipelines accelerates delivery and scales continuous testing across embedded and cloud systems – helping you release faster without compromising safety.

AI Validation and Integrity
In automotive, software reliability is safety-critical, and so is being able to prove it. Keysight covers both sides: testing that your software works, and validating that your AI can be trusted.
Testing software is one challenge. Proving that the AI inside your vehicle is trustworthy is another. International standards and regulators are calling for more than just accuracy metrics. They want to understand how AI makes decisions and require proof of AI safety – "it usually gets it right" isn't an answer.
The AX1000A AI Software Integrity Builder addresses this by validating AI across the full lifecycle: from dataset quality checks and model behavior to real-world inference testing, generating evidence aligned with emerging standards such as ISO/PAS 8800.

Automotive Software Testing FAQs
Eggplant Test tests and automates workflows across infotainment systems (IVI), ADAS, in-vehicle connectivity, digital cockpit displays, telematics platforms, and customer-facing mobile apps. The strongest fit is HMI testing (dashboard interactions, voice commands, touchscreen workflows) where image recognition handles the visual complexity that script-based tools cannot.
Yes, because Eggplant Test tests at the UI level using image and text recognition rather than code-level hooks, it validates embedded ECU software, legacy CAN-bus interfaces, and proprietary OEM platforms without requiring access to source code or vendor-restricted APIs. This is essential for tier-1 suppliers and OEMs working across mixed legacy-and-modern vehicle architectures.
Eggplant Test generates evidence aligned with ISO 26262 functional safety (ASIL A through D), ISO/PAS 8800 AI safety, UN R155 cybersecurity, UN R156 software update management, and ISO/SAE 21434 automotive cybersecurity. Test execution captures the traceability, evidence, and reporting that automotive auditors and Type Approval authorities expect.
Yes. Eggplant Test is used by global OEMs including NIO, which reduced manual testing effort by approximately 40% across its R&D function. It supports distributed test execution across regions and engineering centres, role-based access for separated teams, and integration with enterprise CI/CD toolchains.
Eggplant Test integrates with Jenkins, GitLab, Azure DevOps, and automotive-specific toolchains. For requirements traceability, it connects with DOORS, Polarion, and Jama, which is essential for ISO 26262 compliance where every test must trace back to a safety requirement.
Most OEMs see meaningful results within the first quarter. NIO digitised its testing processes and freed engineering time previously consuming roughly 40% of tester capacity. Initial wins typically come from automating high-frequency regression workflows (infotainment displays, dashboard alerts, ADAS configuration variants) where the manual effort is highest.
