👨‍💻 Sample Code

# Automated KPI extractor from CANoe test logs
# Parses ASC log files, computes Test Yield, FPY, Defect Density
import pandas as pd
import re
from pathlib import Path

def parse_canoe_log(filepath: str) -> pd.DataFrame:
    """Extract signal data and test verdicts from CANoe ASC logs."""
    pattern = re.compile(
        r'(?P<timestamp>\d+\.\d+)\s+\d+\s+(?P<channel>\w+)\s+(?P<id>0x[0-9A-Fa-f]+)'
        r'\s+(?P<dlc>\d)\s+(?P<data>[0-9A-Fa-f ]+)'
    )
    frames = []
    for line in Path(filepath).read_text().splitlines():
        if m := pattern.match(line):
            frames.append(m.groupdict())
    df = pd.DataFrame(frames)
    df['timestamp'] = df['timestamp'].astype(float)
    return df

# Usage
log = parse_canoe_log("test_run_20260415.asc")
print(f"Frames captured: {len(log)} | Lost: {log['dlc'].astype(int).sum() - len(log)}")
