Visure Solutions, Inc., a leader in requirements management and Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) solutions, and Vector Informatik, a provider of software tools for embedded systems development, announce the advanced integration of their tools. This integration leverages Visure’s Comprehensive Requirements Management and ALM Platform with Vector’s VectorCAST Structural Automation Tools to enhance verification, certification, requirements management, and testing coverage, creating an end-to-end solution for embedded software and systems engineering projects.

Enhancing Project Efficiency

The Visure and VectorCAST integration addresses challenges in the software development lifecycle, particularly in safety-critical and business-critical systems. By combining Visure’s robust requirements management with VectorCAST’s testing automation and structural coverage analysis, organizations can achieve unprecedented levels of traceability and compliance with industry standards.

Key Features

• Centralized Requirements Management: Visure Solutions provides a platform for capturing, managing, and tracing requirements across the project lifecycle, ensuring real-time access for all stakeholders. The platform supports complex requirements hierarchies, traceability matrices, and impact analysis.
• Automated Testing and Structural Coverage Analysis: VectorCAST offers unit, integration, and system-level testing solutions. Test cases in VectorCAST can be linked to specific requirements in Visure, ensuring complete traceability. The integration facilitates detailed structural coverage analysis, ensuring all parts of the software are tested against defined requirements.
• Streamlined Certification and Compliance: The integration supports compliance with standards like ISO 9001, CMMI, and DO-178/C. Detailed traceability linking requirements to source code, test cases, and coverage results streamlines certification and audits.
• Improved Risk Management and Transparency: Enhanced risk management allows organizations to identify and mitigate risks early. Features like bi-directional traceability, suspect links, and change impact analysis ensure that changes in requirements are tracked and assessed.
• Efficient Project Collaboration and Management: The integration provides a unified platform for managing requirements and testing activities, facilitating better collaboration among project teams. It supports various development methodologies, including Agile, Waterfall, and V-Model, offering flexibility for different project needs.

Benefits for Critical Systems

The integration of Visure and VectorCAST is particularly beneficial for safety-critical and business-critical systems. These systems often require stringent verification and validation processes to ensure compliance with industry standards and regulations. The integration helps organizations achieve higher levels of product quality and reliability by ensuring that all requirements are thoroughly tested and verified. This reduces the risk of defects and failures in the final product, enhancing customer satisfaction and reducing costly post-release fixes.

Joint Webinar!

Visure and VectorCAST are hosting a webinar titled “Automating End-to-End Traceability Coverage,” featuring Fernando Valera, CTO of Visure Solutions, and Andreas Horn, Senior Code Testing Manager at Vector Informatik. The webinar covers traceability, managing requirements, and strategies for incorporating structural coverage analysis into the software development process.
