Automotive teams have long treated testing as a downstream activity — something to prove designs correct after they’re built. But git-based development, CI/CD pipelines, and increasingly complex software content are pushing verification and validation to happen continuously, at the same pace as development itself.

In this workshop, we show how Model-Based Design connects development and testing into one continuous workflow. Using MATLAB and Simulink, attendees will see how a Highway Lane Following controller is developed, verified, and taken from a laptop, through Hardware-in-the-Loop testing on a Speedgoat real-time target, and into an automated CI/CD pipeline triggered by every git push.

Through live demonstrations, participants will see how Model Advisor supports static model inspection compliant with ISO 26262, how Simulink Test can prove requirements-based scenario test execution and how the Process Advisor turn these into repeatable CI/CD jobs  — reducing manual re-testing effort every time a model changes.

Why attend?

This workshop provides a practical introduction to closing the gap between automotive software development and its verification, using Model-Based Design. Participants will learn how to build and tune a Highway Lane Following controller with Model-Predictive Control, connect Hardware-in-the-Loop testing to a git-based CI/CD pipeline, and apply Model Advisor checks against ISO 26262, MISRA, and AUTOSAR guidelines. The session will demonstrate how a single Simulink model can move from a laptop, through a Speedgoat real-time target, into an automated pipeline that runs every time code is pushed.
