Eastman Kodak Develops Better Software with McCabe IQ

OCTOBER 18, 2005 - WARWICK, RI - Eastman Kodak, the definitive leader in digital and film imaging technologies, has implemented McCabe IQ to manage software quality and testing across their software development initiatives. Kodak is developing everything from device drivers and firmware to end user applications at sites across the United States, and uses McCabe IQ to analyze the code quality and testing of each.

Kodak selected McCabe IQ because it is widely held as the gold-standard of quality and test coverage solutions. McCabe IQ performs unit testing analysis for development teams, and path and complexity analysis for test teams, a combination of specializations unique to McCabe.

“The test group is making more informed decisions on what to test and how much to test because of McCabe’s products,” according to Jeffrey Trevaskis, Manager of Software and Firmware Testing at Kodak. “We are now able to precisely target our development and testing efforts, optimizing our resources, saving time and money, and ultimately providing better quality products to our customers.”

McCabe IQ reports on all testing coverage levels, including path coverage, the most comprehensive type of test analysis available. Users are able to focus testing on high-risk areas, objectively measure testing effectiveness, increase the defect detection rate during internal testing, assess the time and resources needed to ensure a quality application, and correctly determine when to stop testing.
