The LAAS architecture [1] is a three-layer software architecture for real-time control of mobile robots, that has been used successfully in several systems. To improve its robustness, the architecture is currently being restructured with BIP [2] (Behavior - Interaction - Priority). In this paper, we describe a fault injection approach for testing the architecture's robustness.
