VectorCas/C++ & Cover
The VectorCAST products scan your Ada, C/C++ and Embedded C++ (EC++) source code and automatically generate the test code necessary to construct executable test harnesses for both host and embedded environments. With the VectorCAST test system your component simulation model is always up-to-date. It only takes minutes to construct the test environments that are required to isolate individual software components. Utilities are also provided to construct and execute test cases and generate the reports necessary to provide an audit trail of expected and actual results.

The primary mission of information technology is to improve business processes and increase profits. Companies are constantly rethinking and struggling with how to use IT to a competitive advantage, reduce IT operating and maintenance costs, and reduce the total cost of ownership. All while attempting to deliver increased value… Most of these challenges can be traced to the same source: the struggle to ensure that a constantly changing IT environment continues to do what it has to do - without incurring unreasonable costs. To control and reduce cost, increase reliability and ensure continuity Parasoft offer solutions (offthe-shelf tools and professional services) to automatically test embedded software, e-business platforms, websites, web-services and back-end systems.

By choosing Parasoft’s regression test solutions you will work with:

• A strong, focused and local supplier: Parasoft is a 1986 founded, US based Software. Company with 300+ employees inventing, developing and marketing automated testing solutions. Parasoft has global coverage with offices in Asia, Europe and United States.
• Proven technology and services: Parasoft’s regression test solutions are used by more than 10.000 users in fortune-500 companies facing cost-saving, reliability and time-tomarket challenges with increasingly complex software systems and IT environments.
• Increased productivity, quality and reduced costs: The Parasoft solution will automate the manual testing of your applications and help to increase productivity, quality and reduce cost. Several Case studies underwrite this.
  • The Dutch Ministry of Interior claims: "The work changed from manual labor to the development of interesting test cases. A lot of manual labor disappeared and was outmoded. This enabled us to speed up the development cycle. We could now generate a release every three days instead of every three weeks."
  • Lufthansa Cargo claims: "The Parasoft solution was a critical success factor for the overall project. After seeing the excellent results of the project, I strongly believe that it would not have been possible to accomplish this level of high quality without Parasoft."

Start at the end™

Better quality by focusing on the end result

Do you have a nervous breakdown when you think about the quality of your software applications? In that case we have good news! Quality goes hand-in-hand with a clear understanding of the desired end result.

In almost any situation this means one needs to “start at the end”. Not by chance Steven Covey’s second principle when he discusses effective leadership.

“Start at the end” takes the result to be achieved as the starting point. Everybody understands the objective. Using the end result as an integral steering instrument, projects can make the right decisions to optimize success! Well formulated requirements allow you to demonstrate quality using verification and validation techniques.

“Start at the end” consists of a well-thought-of and yet simple set of techniques, with accompanying tools, based on Synergio’s vision and ‘proven’ best practices. Synergio helps people and organizations to improve on their competence. “Start at the end” is the leading thread within program and project management, specification, design and verification and validation. Working with requirements becomes the thinking model for planning and monitoring application quality.

Banks, insurance companies, ICT-developers and companies within the technological industry have already benefitted.

Omnext positions itself as an independent party that deals with the analysis and improvement of mainly complex software systems. The objective of these analyses is to realize efficient development and maintenance of these software systems.

Organizations nowadays are, to a large extent, dependent on their software systems. In addition, they must quickly seize on new developments (Time to Market), and there is a great need for control of costs and flexibility. The source code of the software system forms the basis from which new developments can be realized. Insight in (among others) the size and quality of this source code, is essential in order to act quickly and according to a targeted way.

Omnext provides product and services for automatic (re-)documenting, and measuring applications qualitatively and quantitatively. Omnext enables organizations to gain and stay in ‘control’ of (outsourced) software development and maintenance activities. For this, Omnext uses its own product Source2VALUE.

SolidSource^IT is a technology based company developing applications for maintaining and managing software. The company’s mission is to provide state-of-the art applications for:

•  software developers to accelerate refactoring and debugging activities;
•  software managers to take informed decisions during the development and maintenance phases of a product.

SolidSource^IT uses proprietary technologies for analyzing source code that set new standards for speed and accuracy. These technologies are supported by innovative visualizations that boost user insight and enable them to deliver faster and better results.

To address the complex challenges of the software development industry, SolidSource^IT cooperates closely with LaQuSo. The combined expertise makes possible the development of solutions able to satisfy the increasingly demanding scalability and accuracy needs of software development projects today.
