abstract = {Context: In addition to the current efforts to advance the
electrification of the powertrains through innovations, the
integration of driver assistance systems in the context of
automotive development is of particular importance, both to
increase driving comfort and to improve vehicle safety.
Consumer tests, e.g. from organizations such as EuroNCAP,
play an important role, which serves both as a key driver
for safety improvement and to assess the performance of the
underlying safety systems. In order to be able to better
assess and increase the quality of the software developed
for this purpose, tests both in designated test areas under
real conditions and simulation-based tests in synthetic
environments are suitable approaches to meet the challenges
of continuous quality improvement in an agile way, although
both approaches have different hurdles and limits. In
particular, the simulative approach considered here often
leads to the dilemma that the development of suitable
simulation environments also requires a high amount of
resources like the actual system development. As a result,
this continues to progress in parallel and the simulation
environment cannot be used in adequate time due to the high
effort. Such apossibility can occur, for example, if the
aspect of modeling with the quality goal of being as
realistic as possible is defined without feedback to the
question at the beginning: “What should be answered by the
simulation?”. Goal: The main goal of this thesis is to
support the complex development process of active safety
systems in the context of consumer tests with a simulative
approach to improve software quality. Furthermore, the
allocation of resources during development and the necessary
real tests should be improved and thus made more effective
through the behavioral analysis of algorithms. Method: After
carrying out a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to examine
any existing approaches and methods for the development of
such simulation environments, a separate method is
developed, presented and applied in a case study, taking
into account the existing project conditions. Results: The
analysis of the project context comes to the conclusion that
there are simulation activities, but a structured approach
to their development is missing. The Systematic Literature
Review confirms this result, so that the need to develop an
agile method for simulative quality assurance of active
safety systems, especially with regard to consumer tests, is
shown. The method presented comprises four building blocks:
(a) the analysis and modeling of the investigation area, (b)
the development of an adequate simulation infrastructure,
(c) the development of evaluation methods and (d) the
implementation of simulation runs and their evaluation.
Finally, the method is applied with the help of a case study
for a proof of concept. Conclusion: It is shown that the
method makes a positive contribution during the qualitative
assessment of software components on a simulative basis,
especially where equivalence class tests are not sufficient
to adequately test consumer test scenarios. Limitations and
the need for expansion of the method are primarily seen in
the transfer to other contexts in the driver assistance
environment and the expansion to additional consumer test
scenarios such as pedestrian protection.},
