Growth Drivers

  • Regulatory compliance in critical industries: The rising demand for regulatory compliance across various industries, including finance, automotive, and healthcare, is driving the requirement for MBT tools. This need is prompting companies to come out with customized model-based testing solutions for their operations. In October 2023, dSPACE received ISO 26262 certification for its Automotive Simulation Models (ASM) tool suite, the sensor-realistic 3D environment AURELION, and the user interface ModelDesk. This comprehensive certification supports customers in the homologation of functions for autonomous driving, electromobility applications, and driver assistance systems, further accelerating the market growth.

  • Advancements in software-in-the-loop features: The market expansion of model-based testing tools depends largely on the development of software-in-the-loop testing features on actual hardware systems. The companies operating in the MBT industry are investing heavily to improve real-world simulation abilities, as this enhances early-stage software debugging and validation precision. For instance, in November 2023, Vector Informatik added a crucial function to CANoe4SW 17 Service Pack 3 for performing software-in-the-loop tests directly on target devices. With these enhancements, developers are able to perform software tests with demanding hardware dependencies through operational interface checks, allowing immediate and continuous validation of hardware-based software. This development is strengthening the market growth, with an increase in product development processes.

 Challenge

  • High initial investments: The implementation of model-based testing solutions requires substantial investment, such as hardware expenditures, software licensing fees, and training expenses. Setting up MBT systems and the need for specialized expertise, along with system complexity, are pushing the overall costs to higher levels. Small and mid-sized enterprises face substantial implementation costs as part of their resistance to adopting these systems, as they face constrained finances for technology investment, which is hampering the widespread market growth.
