| Summary: | Manufacturing software are widely being used in automating production lines as it makes the process faster, ensure safety of the workers, and costs less in long term. As technology advances, the software used also updates as its job requirement for these types of software goes more complex. To ensure that the software does it job, software testing is performed. However, performing manual software testing consumes a lot of time and manpower, so it has become costly for business. By looking for solutions, some manufacturing companies has found ways to overcome this software testing issue by utilizing virtual testing methods. In this study, it is proposed to use Software in the Loop (SIL) method on testing ParTest. SIL is increasingly known in testing software embedded in microchips. This technique is used to allow the development of the software in parallel with the development of the hardware without waiting for the actual hardware to be ready. Through a technology survey, the SIL implement ParTest is evaluated according to its usefulness. By implementing this method, it shows that it can help produce better software and shorten the turnaround time for projects, which results to a more cost efficient method.
