Debugging demystified?

There is a world of difference between the test and measurement requirements of the shop floor and those of the design lab. Production test is all about rapid, repetitive measurements; test in the lab is all about one off measurements, often to prove a concept.
So it’s no surprise that test equipment on the production line differs markedly from the distant cousins used in the design office. In some respects, this doesn’t pose a problem; because both areas have their own requirements, the equipment can develop down different paths. But what if engineers on the shop floor could use similar approaches to their design colleagues, whilst still using the equipment with which they are familiar?
Wind River believes this could bring a range of benefits, including boosting production line throughput, more effective validation and verification of finished products, and less scrap and rework. And it also believes that
custom test applications could be created more readily.
