Automated Test Solution for Arm7 and Nucleus C?

All,

A co-worker asked me to do research on automated testing solutions. I
am not an embedded systems guy, but I was nonetheless asked to do some
research on it. I know we use ARM7 and the Nucleus C compiler. I'm
trying to find an automated test solution or two. While I've found
basic debugger applications, I am really looking for automated test
tools. I've got no idea where to start looking. I found a couple of
programs like Tessy, but Tessy didnt seem to support the combination we
use. Then again corporate web sites seem more about looking slick than
presenting information clearly.

Any advice on any apps to check into?

Thanks,

Lewis

What's your budget?

Check out www.testquest.com.  Good stuff.  Disclaimer: I used to work
for them, and still own some stock.  

Check out www.embeddedtesting.com.  Disclaimer: He used to work for
them too.  I'm less familiar with his products, but he's a pretty
sharp guy and knows testing.

Neither of these is specific to ARM (or any other processor) or
Nucleus C (or C, or any other implementation language).

Good luck,
                                        -=Dave
