Provided is an apparatus and method for automatically extracting an interface of embedded software. The method defines an interface of embedded software as a test item for test of the interface of the embedded software, and generates an interface symbol corresponding to the defined test item. The location of the interface symbol is determined, and a test case is generated based on the interface symbol and its location in the software. Embodiments of the invention thus facilitate the testing of software at interfaces between layers in the software.

Apparatus and method for automatically extracting interface of embedded software

Embodiments of the invention provide a device and a method for automatically testing embedded software, and more specifically for testing interfaces between layers of the embedded software. In one embodiment, the device includes: an emulator; a server including embedded software; an evaluation board configured to download the embedded software from the server and controlled by the emulator; and a host system configured to receive the embedded software from the server and automatically generate test cases for testing the embedded software using the emulator.
