Key Responsibilities
Vehicle-Level Testing Validation
- Perform rigorous testing of Android Automotive HMI applications and headless services on:
- Actual vehicles
- Vehicle simulators / HIL (Hardware-in-the-Loop) setups
- Validate real-world scenarios including:
- Driving conditions
- Network variability (offline/online transitions)
- Vehicle state changes (ignition, charging, etc.)
Test Case Design Coverage
- Design and execute detailed test cases covering:
- Functional scenarios
- Non-functional scenarios (performance, stability, reliability)
- Edge cases across vehicle conditions and user interactions
- Ensure comprehensive coverage across IVI features and ecosystem integrations
Ecosystem Integration Validation
- Validate integration with:
- Tier-1 components and middleware
- Vehicle signals (CAN/LIN) and telematics systems
- Connected services and dependent applications
- Ensure that new features or fixes do not break existing applications or system behavior
Cross-Environment Consistency
- Compare and validate builds across:
- Development (DEV)
- Quality Assurance (QA)
- Production (PROD)
- Ensure zero or minimal delta between standalone testing and integrated Tier-1 environments
- Identify and resolve discrepancies across environments
Defect Analysis Reporting
- Identify, log, and track vehicle-level defects and integration issues
