Parasoft C/C++test 2025.1 offers complete support for MISRA C:2025, refining guidelines from MISRA C:2023 by removing obsolete rules and clarifying AI-generated code treatment. This enables faster certifications, reduces audit complexity, and minimizes risks of rework or fines in safety-critical sectors. “With C/C++test 2025.1, we are taking a major step forward in helping customers navigate the ever-increasing demands of safety, security, and modern software development practices,” said Igor Kirilenko, chief product officer, Parasoft.
The new AI documentation assistant provides rapid answers to task-focused queries, improving access to Parasoft’s user documentation. Integrated with Microsoft Copilot and VS Code, it enhances static and dynamic testing usability, reducing onboarding time and boosting developer efficiency while maximizing ROI on testing automation.
C/C++test 2025.1 strengthens static application security testing with nearly 70 new CWE checks, targeting vulnerabilities like memory corruption and logic flaws. This aligns with standards like ISO 21434 and IEC 62304, enabling early detection of critical issues to reduce costs and enhance software security in regulated industries.
The release introduces intelligent suppression reuse, automatically applying existing suppressions across equivalent rules in standards like AUTOSAR C++14 and MISRA C++ 2023. This eliminates manual re-suppression efforts, saving time and preserving prior investments in compliance for teams managing multiple coding standards.
Parasoft is working toward TÜV-certified GoogleTest support in a future C/C++test CT release, bridging open-source testing frameworks with safety-critical requirements. This will enable developers to balance agility and compliance, addressing regulatory demands in industries like automotive and medical devices.
Expanded compiler support ensures C/C++test 2025.1 integrates effortlessly into existing development workflows. Automatic suppression handling further simplifies transitions to new standards, reducing compatibility concerns and enabling faster adoption for teams focused on delivering high-quality, compliant software.
Parasoft C/C++test 2025.1 empowers developers to deliver safer, more secure software with reduced compliance overhead. By combining MISRA C:2025 support, AI-driven tools, and enhanced security, it enables teams to focus on innovation while meeting rigorous industry standards.
