The Science of Software Testing
June 14, 2011
Software testing has been described as an art for over thirty years. Meanwhile, chip and hardware developers evolved testing and verification to more of a science.  Now you can benefit from the advances in functional verification for your software testing solution.  CrossTest announced  today the release of its CrossTest Platform for automated testing of C code, targeted to embedded system developers.

When you are developing a chip or hardware system, you test that the system is functioning correctly by exercising the inputs and initial state of the system and monitoring the outputs.  The CrossTest platform takes this white-box testing approach and puts you in the driver seat of the automated testing process. Because CrossTest understands the structure of your code and the semantics of the programming language, you will be pleased with the automated test scripts and default values that CrossTest generates to let you drive every function and code path in your software to achieve one hundred percent code coverage in your testing.

If you are developing serious software and you want to maximize software quality and accelerate time to market with your solution, you need the CrossTest platform. You can start your testing on a Windows or Linux host and do your final testing on your target device when it is available. This solution is ideal for embedded systems development, whether you are building Smart phones, Tablets, Gaming systems, network routers, gateways, and monitoring systems, network or storage appliances, or control systems in military, aerospace, automotive, or industrial control. CrossTest is now offering a free trial of the software, so now it is your move .
