Bad Behaviour - Automating System-level Safety Testing Using Open Source Tools

Learn how to automate system-level safety testing for critical software using open source tools in this 25-minute talk from the Linux Foundation. Explore the challenges of compliance testing and discover how to model bad behavior, create common languages for teams, and drive automated tests with scenarios. Dive into practical examples using tools like LAVA and subplot, and understand how to ensure reproducibility with deterministic construction. Gain insights on deploying test instances and integrating all components for comprehensive safety testing in continuous integration environments.
