About Rob Westwood's talk: Unit Testing Embedded C - Why Bother?
Security Flaws. Unexplained Behaviour. Crashes. Writing reliable code can be hard. And when it comes to embedded programming it can seem a whole lot harder.
Most software written these days is written with a suite of unit tests - a technique known to reduce bugs. The additional complexities of embedded development can make unit testing seem just too hard.
In this talk we look at some techniques for successfully unit-testing embedded code in C with examples using ceedling.
