Faster compiler qualification for safety-critical software
An enhanced collaboration between Solid Sands and Validas will assist Validas in providing compiler qualification services with quicker, more efficient results for safety-critical software development.
Validas supports customers by analysing their development tools and providing systematic and automated validation. To satisfy growing demand, the company is strengthening its partnership with Solid Sands to offer continuous compiler qualification, ensuring compliance with industry safety standards.
As part of the updated agreement, Solid Sands will provide Validas with a license to use its SuperTest product, enabling Validas to respond to changing market demands more quickly than before. Compilers will be qualified using Solid Sands’ SuperTest, a proven testing and validation suite designed for C and C++ compilers. Validas will employ SuperTest alongside its established and certified tool qualification process.
SuperTest, which has tracked ISO language specifications for over 40 years, is widely used in safety-critical industries such as automotive, rail, robotics, and aerospace. This test suite assists system integrators and application developers in achieving the necessary confidence levels for their compilers by providing high compiler code coverage and validating against ISO language standards.
By partnering with Solid Sands, Validas can now provide faster and more efficient services to the automotive industry. With the additional support of the unique SuperTest product, Validas ensures that compilers are qualified for use in safety-critical environments.
Marcel Beemster, CTO at Solid Sands, commented: “By collaborating closely with Validas, we can combine their expertise with our widely respected SuperTest, and together provide a comprehensive continuous compiler qualification service for end users who are tasked with the development of safety-critical software.”
Validas CTO Dr Peter Braun stated: “Our partnership with Solid Sands was already robust, and we both have countless satisfied end-users worldwide. This enhanced collaboration now means we can go much further and faster. With our tool qualification process certified by TÜV, users are already confident that its usage in their project is qualified and, if necessary, can be certified. Through this agreement with Solid Sands, our customers can now also be assured that compilers will be qualified for use in safety-critical environments via the unrivalled SuperTest product.”
