Hi prateek. We use a couple of tools to do our software testing. To test that the code does what its meant to, unit testing and the like, we use cucumber. This is a ruby framework but can be used to test c++ which is how we use it. To dynamically analyse our software as its being tested to find memory leeks and uninitialized memory faults we use rational purify. This is a very good tool but is quite expensive. To do code analysis to ensure it meets style and safety guidelines we use LDRA tool suite. This is very expensive but we need a tool like this to be able to certify our software to the safety standards we're required to meet. All 3 of these tools are mostly accessible. I've not had any problem accessing them using Hal. Hope this helps. Nick. -----Original Message----- From: programmingblind-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:programmingblind-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of prateek aggarwal Sent: 11 December 2009 07:08 To: programmingblind Subject: accessible software testing applications hey everyone, as a part of my software engeneering course, the next module that i'm gonna studdy would be software testing. i'd like to know from you folks, that what applications/programs you guys are using for software testing purpuses. few days back i've asked about accessibility of VTune, but no one has responded unfortunately. if you can kindly tell that what are the accessible software testing software that i can use to accomplish my course successfully? basically, it should analyze and optimise the codes. waiting for your responses, soon as it may be possible for you. regards, prateek agarwal. __________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind This email and any files attached are intended for the addressee and may contain information of a confidential nature.
