Automated Protocol Data Analysis: Automation at Different.

In the system test of automatic train protection system EBICAB 2000 DES, the telegrams and bus data are being recorded and afterwards stored in a database for further evaluation and analysis, approximately 350.000 of single signals every minute of a test. A client/server concept has been developed and implemented in order to prepare and reduce the data in such a way, that only significant values¿ changes will be filtered out for evaluation. The existing protocol data analysis function has to be extended in the way that the analysis could be run automatically. The intent is to simplify, accelerate and make safer the visual data analysis, performed by testers. The comparison between recorded log data and expected reactions has to be performed, producing the result in a form of ¿test passed¿ or ¿test failed¿. The creation and implementation of mentioned extension is the purpose of this work.
