New Product Release -- TBreq(TM) Automates Requirements Management for Project Teams

Posted on: Wednesday, 26 April 2006, 09:00 CDT

LDRA, a leading provider of automated software development and testing tools, has today launched TBreq, the next generation in requirements management technology. TBreq helps teams overcome the challenges of mapping test specifications, unit test scenarios, test data and code coverage verification with high level requirements and design requirements. TBreq interfaces directly with Management tools (DOORS(TM), ReqPro(TM), Word(TM), Excel(TM), etc.) to ensure traceability across the software lifecycle and the completeness of the requirements coverage.

TBreq is fully integrated with the LDRA tool suite which, having been developed over the past 31 years, provides a stable and proven technology platform that draws upon LDRA's unrivalled experience and expertise in the field of software testing.

The LDRA tool suite with TBreq provides a solution for software developers, testers, QA managers, architects, business modellers and project managers. Combining the new features of TBreq with LDRA's leading-edge methodology, Zero Defect Software Development (ZDSD), the LDRA tool suite is the most feature rich and technically advanced product in the embedded software development market.

A key feature of TBreq is its ability to capture requirements from any management tool and source in order to provide a powerful capability which the market has not seen before. The LDRA tool suite integrates and automates Requirements Traceability (enabling requirements and design verification), Code Review (applying coding rules), Quality Review (determining code complexity, density and testability), Design Review (analysing interfaces, variable usage, timing and control flow), Unit Testing (creating test harnesses and test vectors) and Test Verification (tracing test execution and determining code coverage).

"The launch of TBreq marks an important stage in the development of the LDRA tool suite. The ability to directly map the requirements to the source code and provide a fully integrated solution brings great benefits and savings for our clients and greatly aids the process of software certification as the documentation provides a full audit trail," said Ian Hennell, Operations Director of LDRA.
