Testing (BBA)
Electrical Tests
- Verify 3V3, 5V0, 9V0 power testpoints report correctly.
- Verify that 5V0 power led turns on.
Firmware Tests
- LED test
- Liveliness - verify that Error, Tracking, Heartbeat, CAN_TX/CAN_RX LEDs turn
- on.
- CAN tests
- Loopback - HEARTBEAT CAN message can be sent and received in loopback configuration.
- Secondary device - HEARTBEAT CAN message can be sent and received between
- two devices.
- Irradiance sensor tests
- Liveliness - verify that irradiance measurements can be taken from each
- irradiance sensor.
- Replication - verify that irradiance measurements can be taken at various
- operating frequencies and determine message dropout metrics.
- Accuracy - verify that the sensors are accurate within a known range of
- lighting conditions, with the appropriate calibration function.
- Temperature sensor tests
- Liveliness - verify that temperature measurements can be taken from each
- temperature sensor.
- Replication - verify that temperature measurements can be taken at various
- operating frequencies and determine message dropout metrics.
- Accuracy - verify that the sensors are accurate within a known range of
- temperature conditions, with the appropriate calibration function.
- System operation tests
- Verify that the state machine transitions as expected given all possible inputs.
- Verify that mock inputs properly trigger event generators.
- Verify that events associated with each event generator execute as expected
- CanEG event task: process input CAN messages (SET_MODE, ACK_FAULT,
- RTD_CONF, IRR_CONF)
- StateMachineEG event task: transitions state and enables required EGs
- TempEG event task: performs RTD measurement and outputs result to CAN
- IrradEG event task: performs irradiance measurement and outputs result
- to CAN
- Heartbeat event task: outputs heartbeat CAN message
