Meet Compliance Requirements with Perforce QAC

Code Quality Tools for Higher Quality and Compliance.

Best Static Code Analyzer for Automotive Functional Safety and Standards Compliance

With its depth and accuracy of analysis, Perforce QAC has been the preferred static code analyzer in tightly regulated and safety-critical industries that need to meet rigorous compliance requirements. Often, this involves verifying compliance with coding standards — such as MISRA and AUTOSAR — and functional safety standards, such as ISO 26262. Perforce QAC is certified for functional safety compliance by TÜV-SÜD, including IEC 61508, ISO 26262, EN 50128, and IEC 62304. In addition, it is also certified in ISO 9001 | TickIT plus Foundation Level, which is one of the most widely adopted standards to ensure that your requirements are not only met but exceeded as well. Trust Perforce QAC as the best static code analyzer for C and C++.

Perforce QAC Key Features

Risk Prioritization

Prioritize coding issues based on the severity of risk. Perforce QAC helps you to target the most critical defects using filters, suppressions, and baselines. It delivers accurate diagnostics and actionable result s— enabling you to fix the most important issues first. 

Perforce Validate Platform

Perforce Validate is a centralized store of analysis results from Perforce QAC and Perforce Klocwork Static Analysis products. Validate provides analysis data, trends, and configurations for codebases across the organization. It is also highly customizable, enabling your team to easily define specific QA and compliance rule configurations, identify issues and deviations, and review the entirety of the code by project and section to adequately meet your team’s needs.

Development Toolset Integration

Integrate static analysis with the rest of your development toolset. Perforce QAC supports most compilers. And, you can integrate it with many development tools—including IDES (such as Microsoft Visual Studio), version control systems (such as Perforce Core), and continuous integration build servers (such as Jenkins).

Who Uses Perforce QAC?

The use of code quality tools is growing within every kind of industry. It is especially important for the development of mission-critical software in:

Embedded Development

Managing the increase in digital assets is essential for the efficient design and development of embedded systems. All of those processes need to happen under strict compliance guidelines. For quality-critical industries, code needs to comply with coding standards and industry requirements. And Perforce QAC can prove that your code is compliant. 

Automotive

Automotive software development requires more than 100 million lines of code. What’s more, the installed embedded software is generally developed independently from the rest of the automobile. Because of this, development teams must be able to effectively manage a unique set of challenges. With Perforce QAC, development teams are able to collaborate on projects and ensure that their code is high quality and meets regulatory compliance.

Aerospace and Defense

Aerospace, defense, and military organizations use embedded software every day. Making sure that software is safe, secure, and reliable is critical. This puts developers under pressure to produce software without any defects. Large code bases and complex systems make this a challenge. Tough compliance requirements make it even more difficult. With Perforce QAC, airborne systems developers can easily prove compliance and develop quality systems.
