nsure++ Product Overview
An automated run-time C/C++ application testing tool that detects elusive
errors such as memory corruption, memory leaks, memory allocation errors,
variable initialization errors, variable definition conflicts, pointer
errors, library errors, logic errors, and algorithmic errors.

Parasoft Insure++ is an automated runtime application-testing tool that
detects elusive C/C++ errors such as memory corruption, memory leaks,
memory allocation errors, variable initialization errors, variable
definition conflicts, pointer errors, library errors, I/O errors, and logic
errors. During compilation, Insure++ reads and analyzes the source code. It
then inserts test and analysis functions around every source code line.
Insure++ builds a database of all program elements. At runtime, Insure++
checks each data value and memory reference against its database to verify
consistency and correctness. Insure++ verifies all types of memory
references, including those to static (global), stack, and shared memory.
It can find memory corruption and memory leaks as well as any errors that
allocate and free dynamic memory. Insure++ also checks third-party
libraries and functions. Testing with Insure++ can uncover such errors as
string manipulation, operations on uninitialized pointers, operations on
pointers to unrelated data blocks, invalid pointer operations, incompatible
variable declarations, and mismatched variable types.

To help optimize dynamic memory usage and maximize test suite coverage,
Insure++ includes two complementary C/C++ testing tools: Parasoft Inuse and
Parasoft TCA. Inuse is a graphical utility that allows users to observe how
their program allocates and frees dynamic memory blocks, providing users
with an understanding of the memory usage patterns of algorithms and
optimizing their behavior. TCA shows test coverage analysis for an
application by determining how many files, functions, and statements have
been executed, giving users an idea of the overall quality of testing.

Insure++ can be used throughout the software development lifecycle from
exposing problems during development, to diagnosing problems in
released/deployed applications. It can be used in concert with Parasoft
C++test to improve C/C++ code reliability, functionality, security,
performance, and maintainability. Moreover, Insure++ works as part of a
comprehensive team-wide Automated Error Prevention solution that reduces
delivery delays and improves the quality and security of complex,
multi-language enterprise applications.

HERE S WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY:
David Miller, IT Manager, Hewlett-Packard Problems that used to take us
several days or even weeks to track down, we are able to routinely find and
fix in a few hours with Insure++. So, Insure++ is now a standard tool that
is used on all software that we develop before it is released. Our
engineering team is very enthusiastic about it and management is convinced
that it was well worth the money.
