Parasoft C/C++test, an embedded software testing tool, focuses on the development of high-reliability systems, providing a triple guarantee of core capabilities that collaboratively build a quality protection system for embedded software, suitable for safety-critical fields such as automotive and aerospace.
The quality and compliance of C/C++ code in embedded system development directly relate to product safety. Traditional processes often face three major bottlenecks: the high cost of fixing hardware-related defects exposed later in the process, the inefficiency of manual checks against industry standards, and insufficient test coverage of complex logical paths. Parasoft C/C++test, designed specifically for embedded scenarios, provides targeted solutions that deeply integrate quality control into the development chain, significantly reducing project risks.
Shift-Left Defect Interception
Parasoft C/C++test identifies critical defects such as memory leaks and pointer errors early in development through static analysis, allowing for early defect detection and reducing project risk costs.
-
Utilizes comprehensive C/C++ code analysis techniques and security testing to assist compliance with standards such as MISRA, AUTOSAR, CERT, and CWE.
-
Supports automatic generation of unit tests, executing them in cross-platform, host, virtual, or hardware target environments.
-
Supports both native and embedded programs, detecting runtime issues such as memory leaks and buffer overflows, achieving embedded runtime analysis.
Automated Compliance Verification
Parasoft C/C++test includes a built-in library of standard rules for the embedded field, helping embedded software projects comply with industry standards and generate audit-ready reports with one click.
-
C/C++ testing certified by TÜV SÜD
-
Compliance standards include: Automotive (ISO26262, ISO 21434), Aerospace (DO-178C DAL-A), Medical (IEC 62304), Industrial (IEC61508), Railway (EN50128)
-
Automatically generates compliance reports
AI-Powered Testing
AI-Powered Testing
Parasoft C/C++test leverages AI and machine learning to dynamically identify high-risk paths based on code structure, enhancing testing efficiency.
-
Applies AI and ML solutions to static code analysis, with AI helping to prioritize bugs and simplify remediation steps.
-
Machine learning analyzes developers’ historical behavior to assign bugs to the most suitable individuals, improving fix efficiency.
For safety-critical embedded systems, the three capabilities of Parasoft C/C++test form a progressive defense: shift-left interception controls fundamental defects from the source, automated compliance ensures code meets mandatory industry requirements, and AI testing addresses complex scenarios to fill gaps. This layered strategy not only addresses the unique environmental constraints and compliance pressures of embedded development but also alleviates the burden on engineers through automation.
In fields such as automotive electronics and industrial control, the traceable compliance evidence and defect prediction capabilities provided by the tool have become crucial support for passing functional safety certifications (such as ISO 26262), ultimately transforming quality control from passive detection to proactive prevention.
