Vector Software integrates with Lauterbach's TRACE32 development tools

Integration provides nearly unlimited volumes of test data from RAM constrained embedded systems.


Providence, Rhode Island – Vector Software now offers an advanced integration with the Lauterbach TRACE32 product. A test automation platform, VectorCAST now enables development, test, and certification teams, to set and continuously collect, nearly unlimited volumes of test data from RAM constrained embedded systems.
 
This latest integration benefits customers in aerospace, defense, automotive, medical devices, industrial control, and commercial environments where software quality and industry compliance are critical. Vector Software’s development team worked closely with Lauterbach and the TRACE32 implementation of IEEE Standard 1149.1-1990 JTAG and IEEE-ISTO 5001-2003 NEXUS. 
 
VectorCAST’s unit test automation and structural code coverage is data driven, making it capable of minimizing the on-target memory requirement for all aspects of test case data where cycles of 100k to 1M or more are required.
 
The impact of this combined capability, VectorCAST and TRACE32, affects all of the supported hardware from microprocessors such as ARM; Imagination-Technologies MIPS; Freescale/NXP; Fujitsu; Intel; AMD, Microcontrollers such as TI (including Hercules); ST-Micro; DSPs from Analog Devices, CPLDs from Altera, Xilinx, and others.
