“We are pleased to receive this vital industry certification based on TÜV SÜD’s extensive audit of our C/C++test CT development processes,” said Igor Kirilenko, chief product officer, Parasoft. “Verification, validation, and quality are integral to each step of our development lifecycle, giving customers peace of mind that Parasoft C/C++test CT is a reliable and trusted option for streamlining regulatory approval while adding value to the development of innovative safety-critical systems and devices.”

Future-Proofing Software Development Practices
Adherence to rigid safety standards and consideration of every possible failure scenario are fundamental to the delivery of the most demanding safety-critical systems. Attaining TÜV SÜD certification reinforces Parasoft’s deep expertise in driving the development of car-safety features for autonomous driving, advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), and functionality for software-defined vehicles, as well as crucial software development for pacemakers, MRI machines, airplanes, and rail lines, among other functional safety systems and devices.

Unlike traditional tools, Parasoft’s C/C++test CT is IDE-independent and integrates seamlessly with developer desktop environments along with modern continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) workflows. Support for open-source test frameworks, including GoogleTest, Boost.Test, and CppUnit, is enhanced with full code coverage, requirements traceability, and reporting capabilities. Designed for automation at scale, C/C++test CT helps organizations optimize efficiency and collaboration across their development pipeline while simplifying the use of containers and serving as a valuable extension to VS Code users.

C/C++test CT Gains Momentum in Safety-Critical Automotive Applications

Since its introduction earlier this year, Parasoft’s C/C++test CT has gained traction with automakers and Tier 1 automotive suppliers seeking adaptive test automation solutions to expedite the delivery of autonomous driving capabilities. Increasingly, stakeholders across the automotive ecosystem are integrating Parasoft C/C++test CT into Agile CI workflows to support large-scale enterprise projects requiring the collaboration of hundreds of developers.

For one complex autonomous driving environment, Parasoft C/C++test CT has been embraced by 600 developers using Kubernetes to automate the deployment, scaling, and management of safety-critical containerized applications. The ability to integrate C/C++test CT into modern development environments without disruption is essential, as global development teams can adopt testing methods like test coverage, code coverage, requirements traceability, and report generation with speed and agility while maintaining compliance with strict industry standards.
