Abstract [sv]

Inbyggda system finns i nästan alla enheter som används i vårt dagliga liv, som exempelvis mobiltelefoner, kylskåp och bilar. En del enheter kan vara betydligt känsligare än andra, vilket innebär att en bugg som existerar i ett system kan orsaka skada, till och med förlust av människoliv, eller orsakar ingen skada alls. Mjukvarutestning och mjukvarufelsökning genomförs för att reducera buggar i ett system. Utbildningsprogrammet Datateknik och Mobil IT på Malmö universitet fokuserar inte på att undervisa mjukvarufelsökning med hjälp av felsökningsverktyg. Således presenterar denna forskning en felsökningslaboration skapat för studenter som går Datateknik och Mobil IT, som anses hjälpa studenterna att få kunskap i hur man använder felsökningsverktyget SAM4E Xplained Pro för att lokalisera buggar. Som ett resultat, utfördes felsökningslaborationen av fyra studenter varav 75 procent av buggarna hittades och åtgärdades.

Abstract [en]

Embedded systems are found in almost every device used in our daily lives, including cell phones, refrigerators, and cars. Some devices may be significantly more sensitive than others, meaning a bug appearing in a system could cause harm, even loss of human lives or cause no harm at all. To reduce bugs in a system, software testing and software debugging are performed. The Computer Science program at Malmö University does not focus on teaching software debugging using a debugger. Thus, this thesis presents a debugging lab created for Computer Science students, considered to help them gain knowledge in how to use the debugger SAM4E Xplained Pro to locate bugs. As a result, four students performed the debugging lab of which 75 percent of the bugs were found and remedied.
