PDTP generates software reports from routine software development tasks and compiles information from different software testing procedures to provide a summary of the software's codebase.
PDTP comes with built-in algorithms that perform various methods of analysis such as aggregated code coverage and change-based testing.[2]
PDTP includes a user-configurable reporting system with APIs to input data from software development or testing tools. These reports may be used to monitor and analyze how software is being implemented across multiple builds and aggregated across all software testing practices.[3]
Overview
editPDTP was introduced in 2009 as Parasoft Concerto[4],[5] In 2012, PDTP won the "Best of Show" Embeddy award from VDC Research.[6] PDTP has the ability to integrate with third-party tools.[7]
PDTP includes pre-configured templates for:[8]
- American National Standards Institute 62304 for Medical Device Software Development
- DO-178B
- IEC 61508 & Safety Integrity Level
- U.S. Food and Drug Administration General Principles of Software Validation
- ISO 26262 & ASIL
- Joint Strike Fighter Program
- Safety-critical Software Development
- Motor Industry Research Association
- Safety Integrity Level
The templates combine automated testing with the process recommendations and requirements outlined in common guidelines.[9]
