Automated Software Testing for Aerospace and Defense
Automation Intelligence (Eggplant Test) for avionics software testing, radar validation, and C2 system automation; DO-178C compliant, runs natively inside air-gapped classified networks.
Automate Repetitive TasksRepetitive regression is fully automated, freeing experts to focus on system integration and mission assurance.
Locked-down TestingRun Eggplant Test directly inside classified networks. No data leaves, no IP is exposed. Perfect for defense labs and sensitive programs.
Audit-ready ComplianceGenerate audit-ready evidence for DO-178C, DO-330, and MIL-STD certification. Eliminate rework while maintaining confidence in every requirement.
Mission PerformanceEggplant Test combines performance validation with continuous monitoring, so mission systems stay responsive, operators stay confident, and readiness is never compromised.

Aerospace & Defense Software Testing FAQs
Yes. Eggplant Test runs natively inside secure, isolated networks with no external data transfer or cloud connectivity required. Test execution, results, and audit evidence all stay within the classified environment. This makes Eggplant Test suitable for testing avionics, radar, satellite ground systems, and C2 platforms in environments where script-based or cloud-dependent automation tools cannot operate.
Yes. Because Eggplant Test tests at the UI level using image and text recognition, it validates legacy systems (VT100 terminals, X11 displays, custom HMIs) and modern systems (web, mobile, 3D mission graphics) with the same approach. This is essential in aerospace and defense where mission-critical systems often span decades of technology and cannot be modernised without disrupting active operations.
Eggplant Test tests avionics displays and flight management systems, radar consoles, satellite ground control systems, C2 (command and control) platforms, mission planning software, simulator HMIs, and secure logistics systems. It is deployed across military, intelligence, and aerospace programs in the US, UK, and other nations.
Eggplant Test generates audit-ready test evidence aligned with DO-178C software certification, DO-330 tool qualification, MIL-STD-498, and MIL-STD-882 safety standards. Every test execution captures timestamps, requirements traceability, expected versus actual results, and visual evidence. This dramatically reduces the manual documentation burden that typically dominates aerospace certification timelines.
By compressing test cycles dramatically. The US Army moved from a 10-hour test event every three days to a 24-hour test event every day using Eggplant Test. Jet Blue reduced Flightkeys UI testing from three weeks to one day. Faster test cycles mean faster fielding of capability updates, faster validation of patches, and higher confidence that systems will perform when operators need them.
Model-based testing absorbs UI and workflow changes that would break scripted automation. When an avionics display layout changes or a C2 console adds a new function, the model updates and the AI re-explores the affected paths. Scripted automation requires rewriting affected scripts manually; often dozens per release cycle in complex defense systems.
Yes. Eggplant Test integrates with Jenkins, GitLab, Azure DevOps, and air-gapped DevSecOps platforms used in classified environments. It also integrates with requirements management tools (DOORS, Jama) for traceability between requirements, tests, and evidence which is essential for DO-178C and MIL-STD certification.
