Automated coding standards compliance
C/C++ Static Code Analysis to Accelerate Standards Compliance & Quality Insights
Through static code analysis with QA-MISRA, dangerous structures as well as problems with security, maintenance and porting can easily be found at an early stage. The earlier software errors are identified and eliminated in the development process, the more your costs are reduced. QA-MISRA checks for over 900 potential software errors in source code.

Metrics & Visualisations
QA-MISRA provides quality insights through metrics and visualisations to understand your code better.
Why invest in QA-MISRA?
Industry leaders use QA-MISRA to accelerate analysis times and standards compliance, and increase confidence by reducing errors in syntactic coding rules and improving source code quality.
HOW QA-MISRA FITS IN YOUR VERIFICATION PROCESS
QA Systems static analysis and software testing tools support verification in the linear flow of software development below. We recommend applying sequential approach to these verification stages with tools that are designed and targeted for each purpose.
- COMPLY > Use QA-MISRA for fast coding standard compliance at the developer’s desktop first.
- TEST > Use Cantata for automated dynamic execution of the standard compliant software.
- ANALYZE > Use Astrée for proving absence of run-time errors on whole application.
NB: Astrée uses the same configuration as QA-MISRA, so the effort to apply it later to a QA-MISRA project later is low.
Special shared license bundle option
QA-MISRA and Cantata share the same Sentinel RMS user license technology. This allows customers to obtain a bundled solution for both tools to share the same concurrent user license pool, as well as the tools being integrated together in the Eclipse based IDE.
When QA-MISRA is purchased as a bundle with Cantata or when an existing Cantata license is converted to a bundle, there are very attractive combined prices available. Please contact us for more information.
SOFTWARE SAFETY STANDARDS COMPLIANCE
International software safety standards require evidence of coding standards compliance to obtain certification for the device software
In addition, most standards require that verification tools used are certified / qualified or proven through use.
QA-MISRA has been independently certified by SGS-TÜV SAAR GmbH for the main software safety standards.
A QA-MISRA tool certification kit is provided free of charge and contains everything needed out-of-the-box to help you achieve certification for your device software.
Automatic tool qualification of QA-MISRA is also available with a tool Qualification Support Kit (QSK)
