While AI accelerates software development at unprecedented speed, testing and quality governance are choking innovation. C-ATS Auto transforms system-level testing from bottleneck to competitive advantage, enabling automotive manufacturers to ship IVI systems faster without compromising quality.

10+ years in Production
Trusted by Tier-Ones and OEMs
System-level testing is the key to shortening IVI time-to-market, yet traditional approaches cannot keep pace with the velocity of modern automotive software development.
The rapidly evolving automotive IVI ecosystem—including Android, QNX, Linux and other proprietary platforms—has remained largely underserved by existing testing solutions. OEMs need a way to validate complex, real-world interactions at scale while maintaining the quality and compliance standards demanded by the automotive industry.
IVI systems must interact with multiple ECUs, vehicle buses (CAN/LIN/Ethernet), audio systems, displays, and peripherals—complexity that emulator-only solutions cannot adequately test.
AAOS compliance testing (CDD requirements, CTS validation) requires deep understanding and manual effort, creating bottlenecks in every release cycle.
Frequent UI changes and multiple display form factors create massive maintenance overhead for test automation, as traditional image-comparison methods constantly break.
Different test approaches across programs and OEMs lead to inconsistent quality baselines and duplicated effort in test asset development.
C-ATS Auto transforms bench testing from a manual, time-intensive process into an automated, scalable TestOps platform—finally giving IVI development the testing infrastructure it deserves.
Testing tens of thousands of IVI test cases at scale requires a fundamentally different approach. C-ATS Auto introduces a bench-first, platform-level TestOps paradigm to the IVI ecosystem.
Backed by 10 years of large-scale deployment across top-tier OEM IVI programs, C-ATS enables automated, real-vehicle bench-based testing at scale. In these environments, IVI systems interact with multiple ECUs, vehicle buses (CAN/LIN/Ethernet), audio systems, displays, and peripherals, enabling automation coverage across tens of thousands of IVI test cases. This bench-first approach validates the complete system integration that vehicles actually experience—something emulator-only solutions cannot achieve.
The Transformation: C-ATS delivers a differentiated platform for operationalizing TestOps on automotive benches. Its centralized infrastructure supports remote bench management, distributed execution, environment health monitoring, test asset lifecycle management, multiple product-line support, and seamless integration into agile CI/CD workflows. Bench-based testing across development QA, system integration, regression, and final validation is transformed from a manual bottleneck into a continuously operable and scalable quality infrastructure.

Production-proven AI. Real LLMs analyzing CTS logs, semantic models verifying UIs, and ML generating test cases. Deployed and delivering results today.
Analyzes requirements, past failures, logs, and user flows to automatically propose missing or high-risk test cases based on system requirements, historical test data patterns, and AAOS compliance requirements.
Engineers describe scenarios in natural language, and AI converts them into executable scripts optimized for available benches and target platforms across multiple scripting languages, reducing manual scripting effort.
Multi-tiered verification combining OpenCV, patented fuzzy matching, and continuously trained semantic recognition models—adapting verification strategy to scenario requirements. Uses supervised learning on labeled UI datasets with MLOps integration for continuous model improvement.
LLM-powered analysis automatically clusters repetitive failures using log pattern recognition and anomaly detection, reducing redundant root-cause analysis. Correlates logs across test runs to identify recurring failure signatures and generates visualized reports with failure distribution metrics, system stability trends, and remediation recommendations.
