AEROSPACE AND DEFENCE

Ensuring DO-178
software compliance

QA Systems > Embedded Software Testing Solutions for C/C++ > Aerospace and Defence

Whether it is civil avionics, military or space systems, the Aerospace and Defence sectors are characterized by complex embedded systems, developed for devices requiring the highest software reliability and incredibly long service periods. These systems often take years to bring to certification, and typically involve multi-tiered supply chains and multi-platform development environments. With such a rigorous approach to software reliability arising from the safety considerations of passengers, military personnel and the sheer financial cost of device failure, combined with system and development complexity, it is not surprising that international standards play a crucial role in software development.

Aerospace and defence standards

Specialised standards in the aerospace and defence sectors cover the development, validation and verification of software. As well as requiring use of coding standards, such as MISRA and CERT.

For more information on standards relevant for aerospace & defence please see the links below.

Guidelines for the use of the C/C++ languages in critical systems

ADATEST 95

Automated unit and integration testing for Ada code

“Cantata allows us to test against requirements in a structured way and gives us the confidence that we have not missed anything. Writing code and getting it to execute is one thing, but that is not the main job. The real job is to prove every­thing.”

Johnny Johansson, Global Validation & Verification Tools Manager, SAAB

“I feel this is a better tool than any other testing tools for DO-178B/C V & V activities.”

Prabhakar Patil, Deputy General Manager, AK Aerotek Software Centre Pvt Ltd

“The systematic use of Cantata has enabled us to have the shortest unit test phase possible with great efficiency in terms of cost.”

Philippe Lomazzi, Head of Software Development Meggitt
