Rational Test RealTime

Rational® Test RealTime is a cross-platform solution for component testing and runtime analysis of embedded software.

Rational Test RealTime helps software development teams to identify and fix hard-to-find defects in embedded software on the actual target environments via a set of test automation and runtime analysis capabilities.

  • Test automation framework and dynamic code analysis solution for embedded and real-time software
  • Automate software unit testing, integration testing, and validation, and provide code coverage analysis, memory profiling, performance profiling, and visual runtime tracing
  • Generate source code review, which reports on adherence to C source code guidelines
  • Integrates with IBM Rational Quality Manager and IBM Rational Team Concert
  • Support C, C++, Ada and Java code using cross-compiler and run on the actual embedded target
  • Version 8.0 adds assisted unit test creation through automatic reverse engineering and script-less visual test editor for C code
  • Operating systems supported: AIX, HP-UX, Linux, Solaris (Sun microsystems), Windows family

Features and benefits
FeatureDescriptionBenefitLanguage Support
Component testing Automates creation and deployment of host and target-based component test harnesses, test stubs, and test drivers Directly testing on the target increases confidence that actual system will perform as expected Java, C/C++, Ada
Code Review Provides automated source code review for analyzing code against a set of predefined rules Ensures that the source adheres to quality guidelines and standards C
Memory profiling Illustrates how a program's memory is being consumed and possibly leaked Identifies the source of eminent or potential memory leaks before they occur, preempting performance issues and program crashes Java, C/C++
Performance profiling Identifies application-level performance bottlenecks Pinpoints areas in the code that can be optimized for their performance Java, C/C++
Thread profiling Detects and analyzes multithreading problems, such as deadlocks and race conditions, as they occur in programs Improves the reliability of multi-threaded applications Java, C/C++
Code coverage analysis Identifies which portions of a program have not been tested Avoids delivering code that is executed for the first time by the user or the target system running the application Java, C/C++, Ada
Runtime tracing Illustrates thread execution, function calls, and variable values in programs as a function of time via UML sequence diagrams Developer can go back in time to review how a program behaved after execution has completed Java, C/C++
System testing Provides message-based unit and integration testing of C threads, tasks, processes and nodes Saves time and money by avoiding the construction of dedicated test beds and related non-core-business activities C
Target Deployment Technology Provides a versatile, low-overhead technology for enabling target-independent tests and runtime analysis Your tests won't need to change when your environment does; test script deployment, execution and reporting remain easy to use Java, C/C++, Ada
Eclipse Plug-in Eclipse user interface Allows usage of Runtime Analysis tools with Eclipse C/C++ Development Tools on Windows platforms without leaving the Eclipse environment C, C++
