- Within XML test modules you can define test case templates. They can be used repeatedly and are parameterized with concrete values before being used. This makes it easier to manage similar test cases.
- In addition to XML and CAPL test modules it is now also possible to implement test cases in .NET languages (C#, VB.NET). This allows you to use the features of the object oriented language and do the test case development in a standard environment.
- Within XML test cases you can reference requirements (or test cases, for example) which are specified in Telelogic DOORS. Hyperlinks in the test report point directly to individual elements in the DOORS modules.
- Many of the checks in the Test Service Library now provide detailed statistics, even if the check result is "passed". This makes it possible, for instance, to read the average, minimum and maximum cycle time of a message directly from the report.
- Full Windows Vista® support even if UAC (User Account Control) is active. The installation program now supports the standard Windows data structure with separate program and data folders (for single users/all users).
- Use the new Panel Designer for an easy and fast creation of panels; e.g. symbols can be added to controls using drag & drop. Individual panels and controls can be configured in the Properties window which remains open.
- System variables are now available in all analysis windows/blocks and panels, and for PortLink. They serve as system-wide variables, e.g. for the exchange of configuration parameters and measurements or for connecting external programs via the COM interface. In contrast to environment variables they can be configured directly in CANoe.
- It is now possible to link signal generators directly to signals, environment variables and system variables. Thereby you can easily stimulate your remaining bus simulation or your test environment.
