Ahstract- This paper brings out the Test Automation framework for testing Mission Critical software of Mission Computer. The Mission Computer is a manager of the complete Avionics systems which include multiple sensors, weapon management, flight management system and advanced Fly by wire etc. The paper focuses on Test Automation at integration level of incremental V model system development life cycle of Mission Critical software. As a manager of Avionics system, the mission critical software will have an impact for modifications or up gradation of any Avionics sub-system. This would result in frequent release of Mission critical software which should be cleared using thousands of test cases. Currently, the software is being tested manually using integration test cases which involve enormous time and man power. The manual testing not only is time consuming but also results in human errors. These errors will have a major impact on delivery schedules and in some cases might lead to a disaster. In order to increase the quality and reliability of the software and enhance the productivity of development process, test automation is an elegant choice. The manual testing effort involved in regression testing is completely brought to a halt with the test automation framework. This paper pulls up the challenges associated with manual testing and the advantages in Test Automation for testing and test report generation for Mission Critical Software. Finally, the Test Automation framework would playa vital role in the development of Mission critical software for current and future Fighter Aircrafts.
