What is CANalyzer/CANoe?

CANalyzer/CANoe are software tools from Vector Informatik used for simulating, analyzing, and testing embedded systems, particularly those utilizing CAN (Controller Area Network), LIN (Local Interconnect Network), Ethernet, and other communication protocols commonly found in automotive and other industries. CANalyzer is primarily used for analysis and monitoring of network traffic, while CANoe provides a more comprehensive environment for simulation, testing, and development of entire distributed systems. They are commonly used for tasks such as bus monitoring, conformance testing, ECU (Electronic Control Unit) testing, and network simulation.
