Digitalisation of Testing and Certification

The digitalisation of avionics hardware and software testing and certification brings opportunities, but also challenges. Staff shortages and the need for skilled engineers with digital capabilities are significant concerns. Addressing these challenges requires effective training programs and strategies to attract new talent. The digital transformation of avionics testing necessitates a proactive approach to workforce development and the adoption of advanced testing methodologies, such as testing for data leaks and exploring the potential of virtual health monitoring or formalising Human Machine Interface (HMI) certification in the context of avionics systems.
