A complete build environment for adding custom test routines to Kozio's kDiagnostics platform

For designers of 32-bit embedded systems who must deliver high quality quickly and at low cost, Kozio's kDiagnostics® Design Suite pairs the proven power of Kozio's In-system Diagnostics platform with ValidationAssistant™. This flexible combination is already highly configurable and customizable, including a built-in scripting environment and interactive interpreter, powerful enough to be actively used by Kozio staff for rapid prototyping and interactive development.

For users seeking even greater levels of customization and extensibility, Kozio provides the Design Suite Pro option to the flagship kDiagnostics Design Suite. This option comprises a full package of tools, libraries, source header files and documentation that allow you to extend the capabilities of Kozio’s diagnostic software applications by building your own custom source code test routines, and compiling customized kDiagnostics binaries.

kDiagnostics Design Suite Pro software stack
 

Using this framework, users quickly extend the power of Kozio’s comprehensive test suites by taking advantage of an effective and optimized API. The installation process is quick and simple, and once complete, you can execute the GNU make command to quickly build your own executable. The default build creates an executable with no modifications required, delivering the default Kozio application ready to run on your custom hardware platform. By using the established platform framework, you can also quickly add your own custom test primitives and routines.

The full Kozio solution is a suite of software tools for design validation and board bring-up, binary image downloading, in-system programming, automated board testing, and in-field power-on self-test. kDiagnostics Design Suite is positioned for design and development engineers wishing to ensure their board designs fully and correctly meet specification, and delivers high test throughput and superior levels of coverage, along with a user-interface targeted to the tasks required for board validation.
