Parasoft has integrated advanced agent-based AI functionalities into C/C++test via a newly implemented MCP server, transforming test automation from traditional tool-focused methodologies to a more autonomous-driven assurance model. This innovative approach ensures that compliance, coverage, and quality standards are maintained throughout the software development lifecycle. The introduction of AI-enhanced test generation, facilitated by MCP-enabled intelligent agents, streamlines the process of creating tests and improving coverage, significantly minimizing the manual workload involved in writing unit tests. Additionally, Parasoft provides a GenAI agent that operates within Microsoft Copilot and seamlessly connects with VS Code to identify and address static analysis issues. There is also an AI-driven documentation agent designed to boost the utilization of Parasoft's static and dynamic testing solutions, maximizing return on investment in software testing automation. Collectively, these advancements position AI as not merely an add-on feature, but rather as an integral assistive layer that enhances test generation, violation remediation, and compliance processes.

Parasoft C/C++test is designed to streamline the C/C++ testing process by maximizing automation throughout the testing lifecycle, eliminating the need for extensive manual test creation and execution. It integrates static analysis, unit testing, and code coverage into a cohesive workflow, allowing tests to be executed automatically as an integral part of the daily development routine rather than as a separate, manual task. Here are some of its notable automation features: - Automated creation of tests - Immediate feedback during test execution - Integration with CI/CD pipelines - AI-driven enhancements for quicker processes - Artifacts based on source code that are easy to review Collectively, these features enable C/C++test to comprehensively address the "Automated Testing" landscape: from test generation and execution to identifying failures and coverage issues, all while seamlessly incorporating results into CI/CD pipelines — with AI continuously working to minimize manual input at every stage.

Parasoft C/C++test provides comprehensive measurement of structural code coverage throughout unit, integration, and functional testing phases. It offers various metrics, such as statement, branch, MC/DC, call, and object/assembly coverage. This coverage can be evaluated on host systems, simulators, or target hardware, and is compatible with popular open-source testing frameworks like GoogleTest, Boost.Test, and CppUnit for those who prefer alternatives to C/C++test's native framework. The findings are integrated into Parasoft DTP, enabling centralized reporting on coverage per test along with trend analysis across different builds. This functionality aids teams in identifying coverage gaps and fulfilling the requirements set by standards such as ISO 26262 and DO-178C.

Parasoft C/C++test is specifically engineered to integrate testing seamlessly into CI/CD workflows, eliminating the notion of testing as a standalone phase at the end of the development cycle. It combines static analysis, unit testing, and code coverage into build systems and continuous integration frameworks, automating a wide array of coding best practices while efficiently relaying results to Parasoft DTP for collection and trend analysis over multiple builds. One client shared their experience of incorporating test automation and static code analysis early in the development process, emphasizing its positive impact on quality assurance for safety-critical automotive projects. This ongoing methodology also applies to regulatory compliance; in industries with strict regulations, C/C++test ensures that coverage, coding standards, and traceability are consistently upheld during every build, rather than serving as a one-time checkpoint, enabling continuous verification of both compliance and quality throughout the development cycle.

Parasoft C/C++test provides comprehensive functional testing capabilities that encompass both unit and system-level evaluations to ensure code operates according to specified requirements, rather than merely conforming to structural or stylistic guidelines. The tool autonomously creates adaptable test cases that can be run in various environments, including host, simulator, and the actual target systems, to assess code reliability and functional outcomes, while also compiling code coverage data. The generated tests can reflect the current behavior of the software at the method or function level, which can then be expanded for functional assessments and automatically set up for regression testing. For projects that are safety-critical, the system-level testing includes fault injection, allowing teams to confirm functional accuracy in both regular and fault-induced scenarios, aiding compliance with standards such as ISO 26262 and DO-178B/C.

Parasoft C/C++test offers runtime analysis features designed to enhance the reliability and stability aspects of performance issues.

Parasoft C/C++test is an all-in-one testing platform designed specifically for C and C++ development. It integrates a variety of testing methodologies, including static analysis, unit testing, code coverage, runtime analysis, requirements traceability, and compliance reporting, into a cohesive solution. Instead of requiring teams to piece together multiple tools, it seamlessly integrates with popular IDEs like VS Code and Eclipse, as well as CI/CD workflows. This integration helps teams identify defects, security risks, and compliance issues earlier in the development process, while also streamlining the manual aspects of testing and compliance. The platform is TÜV SÜD-certified, adhering to functional safety standards such as ISO 26262, IEC 61508, IEC 62304, and DO-178B/C. With the incorporation of AI-driven features and agentic workflows through an MCP server and AI-assisted test generation, Parasoft C/C++test enhances test creation and coverage efficiency. Overall, it serves not only as a specialized tool but as a comprehensive testing infrastructure for embedded C/C++ projects that prioritize safety and security.

Parasoft C/C++test features a robust static analysis engine designed to identify security flaws prior to execution. It utilizes pattern-based analysis, data flow analysis, and abstract interpretation to adhere to industry standards such as CERT C/C++, CWE, and OWASP. The latest release, version 2025.1, introduces almost 70 new static analysis rules focused on specific CWEs to assist developers in promptly detecting vulnerabilities and enhancing security measures. This analysis seamlessly integrates with popular IDEs, including VS Code and Eclipse, as well as CI/CD pipelines, allowing for the detection of issues during commit or build phases. Additionally, it enforces coding standards like MISRA C:2025, MISRA C++:2023, and AUTOSAR C++14, catering to industries where security and compliance are critical.

Parasoft C/C++test employs a robust core static analysis methodology that leverages pattern recognition, data flow examination, abstract interpretation, and various metrics to identify code issues, security risks, and compliance failures without the need to run the program. It adheres to coding standards including MISRA C:2025, MISRA C++:2023, AUTOSAR C++14, CERT C/C++, and CWE. Seamlessly integrating with development environments such as VS Code and Eclipse, as well as CI/CD workflows, it ensures that coding violations are identified early in the development process. Additionally, the results can be integrated with runtime and unit test data in Parasoft DTP, providing a comprehensive view of the overall quality of the code.
