Abstract

A method and a device for the functional testing and evaluation of a control system. The method for functional testing of sensors, actuators, and/or a control logic system of a control system controlled in at least a partly automated manner has the following: sending at least one stimulus to a sensor, an actuator, and/or to the control logic system of the control system; reading out at least one reaction of the control system from the sensor, from the actuator, from the control logic system, and/or from a connection between these components; and using a metric module to compare the reaction with a stored expected reaction, the metric module determining a metric according to which deviations of the read-out reaction from the expected reaction are to be evaluated with respect to the intended function of the control system.
