"With the new release of C/C++test,we are bringing unique AIandMLcapabilities to help organizations with the adoption of static analysis forsecure safety-critical applicationsdevelopment.With these innovations, organizations can immediately reduce manual effort in their software quality processes,"statedMiroslawZielinski,ParasoftProduct Manager."Organization serious intheirapproach to safety, security, and quality of software, will soon need to include AI-based tools into their development process to keep pace with competition and stay relevantinthe market. This is only our first step in the application of AIandML to the safety-critical market."

Embedded devicesarecomplex,and with increasingsafety and securityconcerns, it is crucial that automated software testing solutions stay up to date on the ever-expanding compliance standards.Hence,Parasoftcontinues to leadtheenforcementof the latestguidelines.Additionally, withindustry-standard prerequisites toestablishtraceability of software requirements to test cases,Parasofthas built integrations with some of the most popular application lifecycle management(ALM)solutions.The integrationsestablishtraceabilityfromsoftware requirements to test cases.

Story continues

"The market for functional safety (FuSa)Testtoolssales will grow at the quickest CAGR of 9.3% to reach $539.6M in revenue in 2023. The need to establish bi-directional traceability to meet FUSA certification requirements is fueling interest in using integrated application lifecycle management (ALM)and product lifecycle management (PLM) solutions to manage the entire product development process,"states Chris Rommel, EVP,VDC ResearchGroup.

What's new?

Aninnovativetechnique forincreasingstructural coverage fromunittestingthroughadvanced code analysis for C/C++ and Java. This now significantly reduces the burden of testing efforts required by standards such as ISO 26262 (Automotive), DO-178B/C(Aerospace), IEC 62304 (Medical Devices) and IEC 61508 (Functional Safety)

Parasoftleaps forward beyond the rest of the market, withaunique application of AI/Machine Learning to help organizations with the adoption of Static Analysis. Parasoft'sAI-solution reviews new static analysis findings in the context of both historical interactions with the code base and prior static analysis findings to predict relevance and prioritize the new findings.

Parasoftcontinues to provide leading support for automated enforcement of industry coding guidelines with expanded coverage for updated security standards (e.g. the 2019 CWE Top 25 and 'on the cusp'),AUTOSARC++14 and the new MISRA C 2012 Amendment2, ensuringParasoft'stools continue to meet the changing needs of the industry by keeping pace with guideline requirements.

Parasoftannounces new integrations withPolarion,codeBeamer,andJira, for enhanced requirements traceability. The bi-directional data exchange bridges the gap between requirements and the tests that validate them, to offer full traceability down to the code being developed, helping fulfill compliance to developing process standards such as ISO 26262 (Automotive), DO-178B/C(Aerospace), IEC 62304 (Medical Devices) and IEC 61508 (Functional Safety).
