LDRA improves testing suite

September 3, 2008 —  Automated software verification and testing company LDRA has improved editor configuration to its main product suite.

LDRA 7.7, released yesterday, comes with an updated version of the TBreq requirements traceability tool and TBvision, a tool designed to help with industry standards compliance as well as defect and fault detection. LDRA executives said that with the enhanced requirements traceability and graphical reports, developers can identify faults earlier in the development process.

Editor configuration is improved in the new version of LDRA because the user can select a default source code editor or enter the details for another one, the company said. Enhancements to TBreq 2.2 include the ability to import requirement hierarchies like Use Cases and SysML. TBreq also has improved Microsoft Vista interoperability and DO-178B Level A certification.

LDRA has made improvements to its TBrun automated unit testing tool by adding user control of linked libraries so that developers can customize the calling driver of test points, according to the company. There is also an updated data dictionary that creates values for application data types. The TBeXtreme automated test case creation tool now can work with user-defined data types to enable developers to use data types that have been defined within application code.

“With systems and software becoming increasingly complex, organizations need tools that support them in all stages of the software development cycle,” said Ian Hennell, LDRA’s operations director. “By providing customers with a comprehensive set of tools for requirements traceability through to unit testing, LDRA's tool suite portfolio takes developers much closer to the goal of zero-defect software development.”
