Abstract
A computer-implemented method for testing a control program that is modeled as one or more blocks of a block diagram in a computing environment. A first user interface is provided for selecting a simulation mode for the block diagram and a second user interface is provided for selecting a compiler intended for production code compilation. When it is confirmed that a software-in-the-loop simulation mode has been selected in the first user interface, the blocks of the block diagram are converted to a production code and is compiled to an executable using the compiler selected in the second user interface. By running the executable on the host computer while recording one or more data points based on input/output signals and/or evaluating the compliance of the one or more data points to one or more criteria, the control program corresponding to the one or more blocks is tested.
