Test Automation at Exafore
Your projects and tasks will depend on your experience, preferences and our current project situation. All our projects are related to embedded systems and most of them are in the location technology field.
Our main test automation technologies and frameworks are Python and Robot Framework.
Manual testing has also important role in our testing activities. For example, we may want to collect accurate location data manually by walking around our office or driving around the city.
Usually exaforeans have only one project at a time. The project length and the size of the project team can vary.
Exafore Horizon development
Exafore Horizon is our indoor positioning system product. It is ultra-wideband (UWB) radio technology based real time system, with embedded components implemented in C and server side in Python. Python is used in test automation as well. The system measures the distance between base stations and tags, and computes tag positions based on the distances. Inertial sensor data from each tag is used to enhance positioning performance and to reduce tag power consumption. We are constantly developing our system for new features and improving its accuracy and robustness.
If you have strong expertise in embedded systems, we can offer you a lot of responsibility in Exafore Horizon testing activities.
Customer projects
Python and Robot Framework are both quite commonly used in our test automation related customer projects. Depending on the project the work may be done at Exafore offices or at customer site in Tampere area.
