Software Testing News Jun 2022
It’s the end of the month and so time for ‘Software Testing News Jun 2022’. We begin with a report on LG’s software testing centre achieving a first. Then we discover how NASA’s dedication to testing means a delay for a billion dollar mission. Finally, we then look at a report that shows a distinct lack of dedication elsewhere.
Read our testing news round-up for May 2022.
LG Software testing centre in world first
The first of a kind, in fact. LG Electronics’ new centre is officially a TUV Rheinland appointed laboratory. This means that it can carry out functional testing on automotive software solutions under the ISO262-6 Standard.
TUV Rheinland is one of the world’s leading global testing organisations. This accreditation means that LG can enjoy the same credibility of dedicated, third-party testing agencies.

The next potential launch periods could be July 2023 or September 2023, with additional launch periods available in 2024.
