Hive · The toolset

The Hive toolset, from the test plan to the closed issue.

Plan the fleet, write the procedures, raise issues on the move and triage them with their data, then report from the same records.

The toolset

From the test plan to the closed issue.

01 · PLAN

Book the fleet

Book vehicles, drivers, passengers and test procedures against a calendar, with each car's configuration recorded alongside.

02 · PROCEDURE

Write the procedure first

Author test procedures as sections and test cases, with the preconditions and setup each case needs, then prioritise them and track their status.

03 · DRIVE

Raise the issue on the move

The passenger sees the procedure while the car is moving and logs an issue against the case that failed. The time adjustment moves the data window back to when the car showed the fault, and a repeat or duplicate is marked in one tap.

05 · REPORT

Answer the gate-review question from the same records

Analytics count issues first seen against repeats, issues by ECU, procedures executed, and test time and mileage per vehicle. Each count is made of tickets that are already linked to their data.

04 · TRIAGE

Open the ticket on the evidence

Each ticket opens on a window of bus data with the signals the engineer chooses, the camera frames from the same seconds and the car's position. Issues are triaged, assigned and closed, then exported to the tracker your engineers already use.

FROM THE SAME LOGS

Analysis the fleet does not have to run separately

Every channel is stored per drive and synchronised, so the data behind the tickets also supports energy flow from source to wheel, operating points plotted over inverter and motor efficiency maps, and anomaly flags that point engineers at trips nobody reported.

Planner and procedure screens are from the Hive demo environment. The passenger screen and chart are illustrations.
