I'm designing a diagnostic system that simulates an environment and user input for a dummy vehicle. All possible critical situations are simulated in order to find out whether any errors are triggered, or if the software contains any faults or bugs.

It's a vehicle for state defense, it doesn't have OBD like normal cars, but a display with buttons with which you can seek and troubleshoot errors. I have to design a procedure for testing each new software release. I was wondering if any standard exists for testing/validating software. Just like driving cycles(NEDC, WLTP) exist for emission tests.

Do any standards(SAE, DIN, etc.) exist for this kind of thing?

Since your project is defense software related I suggest taking a look at MIL-STD-498. The one that is close related to your question is SOFTWARE TEST PLAN (STP)
