This includes requirements management, engineering change management, revision control, build management, test management, and software release, including the associated reports and metrics.
Using the VectorCAST Requirements Gateway (VectorCAST/RGW), engineers can import software requirements and associate them with VectorCAST test cases, including pass/fail results. This mapping can then be pushed back to PTC Integrity for complete traceability. Through a simple and intuitive interface, developers can quickly and easily link requirements to VectorCAST test cases.
The PTC Integrity solution is built around a single platform that supports traceability, process automation and reporting, and analytics. By integrating the VectorCAST test tool into this environment, developers can expand these design capabilities with a robust software testing solution integrated into their ALM environment.
A powerful feature of this integration is that both the VectorCAST and PTC Integrity tools are certified by TÜV SÜD for developing ISO 26262 and IEC 61508 safety-critical systems. This enables engineers to both qualify the tool chain, and test the code developed for safety-critical applications, including the most stringent ASIL-D or SIL3 levels of safety function, as defined by the standards.
