CAPL scripting Insights

What is CAPL scripting?

CAPL (Communication Access Programming Language) is a programming language used primarily within the automotive industry for testing and simulating embedded systems, specifically those communicating over CAN (Controller Area Network) and other automotive bus systems. It's commonly used with tools like CANalyzer (from Vector Informatik) to analyze network traffic, automate testing procedures, and simulate ECU (Electronic Control Unit) behavior.
