This paper analyses several tools and methods for the comprehensive and efficient development of Power Electronics control systems. Hardware In the Loop technology enhances a possibility for compromising two opposing demands: the requirement for exhausting testing process and a requirement for as short time to market as possible. The procedure was presented through development and testing of one complex control algorithm for the connection of the permanent magnet synchronous generator to the electrical grid. Development steps are explained and analysed in detail. Finally, several scenarios based on presented tools and methods are proposed. [Projekat Ministarstva nauke Republike Srbije, br.
