Coverity SDLC Integrations

IDE

Desktop Analysis

Surface and remediate defects from within the Eclipse, Visual Studio, ARM Design Studio, IBM Rational Team Concert or Wind River Workbench IDE. Developers can clean their code prior to checking it into a centralized build system--while the code is fresh in their mind and easiest to fix. Defects that are identified through the central build can also be easily remediated from within the IDE.

Incremental Analysis

Quickly verify code changes prior to check-in by only analyzing the code which has changed or been impacted by a change, instead of the entire codebase.

Code Coverage &
Test Automation

Coverity integrates with leading code coverage and test automation tools to capture unit testing coverage data, which is incorporated into Test Advisor to identify code not sufficiently covered by unit tests.

Coverity supports the following code coverage tools:

• C/C++: BullseyeCoverage, Gcov
• Java: Coverity provides instrumentation for Java out-of-the-box

Coverity supports the following test automation and execution frameworks:

• C/C++: any scripted test execution on the build host
• Java: Junit, TestNG

Build/CI, SCM
& Bug Tracking

Make development testing a part of your overall lifecycle through integration with leading build, continuous integration, SCM and bug tracking systems.

Jenkins Plug-in

Coverity provides out-of-the box integration with Jenkins Continuous Integration Server to automatically apply a continuous process for software quality and security as part of an Agile process.

Electric Cloud ElectricAccelerator

Automatically schedule Coverity analysis as a standard part of the build and test process to accelerate software production cycles by 4-6x.

Build Server/CI Server

Run Coverity as part of a nightly or continuous build process.

Integrations include:
Anthill, Bamboo, BuildForge, Buildr, Ccache, Clearmake, CruiseControl, Distcc, FinalBuilder, Icecream, Incredibuild and Visual BuildPro, VSBuild.

SCM

Automatically assign issues to the change owner and incorporate change history data into Test Advisor to identify code not sufficiently covered by unit tests.

Integrations include:
Accurev, ClearCase, CVS, Git, Perforce, Subversion (SVN), Mercurial, MKS Integrity, Visual Source Safe, Visual Studio Team System, Microsoft Team Foundation Server.

Bug Tracking

Integrate Coverity defects into the overall defect management system of record.

Integrations include:
Accuwork, Bugzilla, ClearQuest, CM Synergy, JIRA, Mantis, MKS Integrity, Quality Center, SourceForge Enterprise Edition (Collabnet), Remedy, Serena TeamTrack, Trac.

ALM

Ready for IBM Rational software validation enables customers to seamlessly incorporate development testing into their ALM workflow and gain a new level of visibility into code quality and security early in development. Coverity® Quality Advisor, Coverity® Security Advisor and Coverity® Test Advisor have been validated Ready for IBM Rational, including support for IBM® Rational® Team Concert (RTC). Through this integration, Coverity-identified quality and security issues are surfaced within RTC, providing a unified workflow for a new level of collaboration.

• Accelerate Time-to-Market: Surfaces quality and security issues in the developer workflow, with accuracy and actionable remediation guidance so developers can troubleshoot and fix defects and untested code violations before code makes its way to QA, reducing time spent on rework and shrinking the QA cycle.
• Increase Team Productivity and Collaboration: Enables developers, architects, project managers and QA to work together more effectively through a common definition of quality and security, a unified workflow and shared visibility into development related issues.
• Seamless Integration into Existing Process: Surfaces Coverity-identified defects within your existing IBM Rational ALM workflow, providing seamless bi-directional integration to make development testing a natural part of an Agile or traditional development process.

Coverity Connector for HP Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) integrates code quality key performance indicators into project planning and release readiness scorecards, tying defects discovered by Quality Advisor to code changes and business requirements in the HP ALM workflow. Links are also provided to the Coverity knowledge base for additional information. Bi-directional synchronization allows defect status to be updated from Coverity or HP ALM facilitating:

• Development traceability: By connecting code quality defects to code changes and business requirements, IT gets more visibility into development, is able to align development and QA resources appropriately, and make more informed release decisions.
• Better collaboration between development and QA: Connects development and QA through a common definition of quality, single workflow and shared visibility into development related defects.
• Seamless integration into your existing process: Coverity Development Testing easily snaps into the HP ALM workflow, from requirements to release management, reducing time and cost of adoption.
