Python Test Automation Engineer

The AmTS Automation team develops and maintains automated software verification workflows for ECU and component testing focusing on Python-based automation and integration into HIL test environments within the product Tracetronic ECU Test.

AmTS integrates test execution across various components:

ECUTest (Tracetronic) framework for automated test sequences

Communication stacks: CAN LIN FlexRay Automotive Ethernet

Diagnostic interfaces: UDS Secure Diagnostics

Toolchains: GitHubbased releases VS Code Python libraries

The system supports the full test lifecycle from preparing test benches to executing weekly or ondemand verification runs.

AMTS is essential to guarantee that:

ECU functions behave correctly

Software integration into vehicle platforms is realized without additional efforts

Test coverage is comprehensive and reproducible

Release candidates meet maturity requirements

BMWs E/E systems maintain high quality standards

Responsibilities:

Ensuring the reliability and operational readiness of automated toolchains that support test case implementation software quality measurement and automated test set release via GitHub.

Owning Python-based automation for test set release test order definition test execution monitoring evaluation and status reporting based on functional test focus areas.

Ensuring that all test cases are written in accordance with defined coding guidelines and allocated E/E system requirements (e.g. ECU flash diagnostics secure communication).

Tasks:

Develop and maintain Python scripts that automate the full test workflow (release execution evaluation reporting).

Maintain troubleshoot and extend automated toolchains based on new or evolving requirements.

Implement test cases following coding standards and requirement specifications for E/E system functions.

• formally specified by Function Owners
• implemented using ECUTest libraries
• part of a maturityrelevant release cadence
• executed on hardware-in-the-loop test benches

Analyse failed test cases investigate logs identify root causes and create defect tickets with proper error descriptions and log attachments.
