ISO26262 is a standard that shall provide for functional safety in vehicles. Parts of this standard describe measures to be taken by automotive suppliers and/or manufacturers in order to minimize the risk of the software tools used introducing or failing to detect errors in an end product.To this end, extensive consideration and risk assessment regarding the tools used in the development and test process are already required in preparation of a development. The automotive supplier/manufacturer can be partly relieved of these considerations if the tool manufacturer takes over of some preliminary tasks. Independent organizations moreover offer certificates to prove that a software tool is suitable for use in the development of a safety-related application. To put it in a nutshell: it’s all about liability.
