Use Reactis automated validation and testing via CI/CD to catch defects early in the development process.
Abstract#
When designing discrete-time Simulink®[1] models or producing C code, the automated validation and testing capabilities of the Reactis®[2] tool suite can be used to make CI/CD significantly more effective: CI/CD automation can reveal issues with models and code that would otherwise not be detected until much later in the development process. Furthermore, applying Reactis tools earlier in the development process enables integrated design and test stages, allowing test activities to start earlier and feedback to improve validation in the design stage, leading to shorter development cycles and fewer iterations.
This white paper discusses best practice for using Reactis tools via the API in a GitLab CI/CD pipeline and shows how to configure Reactis for use in a GitLab runner.
An example is provided showing how these ideas can be implemented in a GitLab pipeline.
