PRQA Programming Research has announced further enhancements and additions to its Framework environment and its QA·Verify code management web interface. These latest releases strengthen PRQA’s complete code management solution, making inspection and compliance more effective, improving integration and giving greater visibility to stakeholders within the decision-making process.

The desktop Framework environment provides a component-based plug-in architecture, incorporating QA·C and QA·C++ components and making it easier to add additional third party components to facilitate integration into the broader software development tool chain. This cross-platform, multi-interface format enables the analysis of mixed language (C and C++) projects. Users have the option of command line or graphical user interfaces as well as full integration with Microsoft Visual Studio and Eclipse.

Other recent enhancements include easier integration into build automation systems, better control over the distribution of project configurations among development team members and further improvements to the coverage of key coding standards such as HIC++ and MISRA.

QA·Verify has added a range of enhancements to deliver sophisticated software quality management. A heat-map display provides a visual enhancement to the existing drill-down capability from top-level quality presentation into precise detail. Added search capabilities make it easy to focus on key issues in code or analysis messaging. Integration into the broader software ecosphere is enhanced with a capability to link QA·Verify annotations to an external issue tracking system such as JIRA.

An automatic scheduling capability can deliver an instantaneous report of project status to interested parties, by email. To suit large installation sites, user management is enhanced with developer views limited to sub-sets of a large project. Handling of large sequences of snapshot uploads to the central project repository is also improved with facilities to hide and remove unwanted history.

Fergus Bolger, CTO, PRQA, stated, “The adoption of both our Framework environment on the developer desktop and QA·Verify for the wider stakeholders has ramped up rapidly. In these latest releases we have responded to the feedback from our expanding customer base, streamlining the integration into our customers’ development processes and improving the usability of our solution from the perspective of the end-user.”

Framework is an integral part of our latest QA·C and QA·C++ releases. QA·C 8.2.1, QA·C++ 3.2.1 and QA·Verify 2.0 are available now.
