Parasoft has announced the latest release of its C and C++ testing solution, Parasoft C/C++test. This version will contain Tool Qualification Kits, which automates the process of creating support documentation. The addition of the Tool Qualification Kits will reduce the potential for human error and the time needed to perform tool qualification, according to the company.
“Tool qualification is a necessary part of developing software for safety-critical industries, but the process itself is time-consuming and takes the team’s focus away from the delivery of capabilities to their end users, ultimately affecting the scope of what is delivered and/or time to market,” said Mark Lambert, VP of products at Parasoft. “By automating and simplifying the tool qualification process for Parasoft C/C++test, we have significantly reduced this burden and freed our automotive, aerospace, railway and functional safety clients to focus on the delivery of their high quality products to their customers.”
