MICROWAVE DATA SYSTEMS SELECTS McCABE IQ TO IMPROVE SOFTWARE QUALITY

WARWICK, RI - McCabe Software Inc. announced the decision by Microwave Data Systems (MDS), to implement the McCabe IQ suite of software quality management solutions, providing comprehensive software metrics and test coverage for their embedded real-time systems.

The McCabe toolset has been shown to be useful across all major components of MDS product software. Supporting a structured test methodology, the toolset will add value throughout the product design and test phases, focus test efforts to reduce test intervals, and provide a channel for informed communication between the design and test teams for improvement of product designs.

"McCabe Software successfully demonstrated the benefits afforded by the IQ product in the MDS development and test environments." says William Hinkel, Manager of Product Assurance at MDS. "IQ's adaptability to the wide variety of development targets used by MDS, most of which are embedded real-time systems, was a key factor in the purchase decision."

The McCabe IQ suite is made up of three multi-platform, multi-language software quality management solutions. McCabe QA visualizes the complexity of source code and provides a host of metrics with which to measure quality. McCabe Test identifies what areas of code have been tested and facilitates improved test plans. McCabe EQ enhances the capabilities of McCabe QA and McCabe Test, providing organizations with reporting on quality and testedness from one project to the entire enterprise.
