McCabe Brings Superior Software Quality Into Reach For Eclipse Users

Enhanced Eclipse Support Offers High-End Software Quality Management to Larger Audience

Warwick, RI (PRWEB) July 15, 2005

McCabe Software, formerly known as McCabe & Associates, Inc., today announced the release of McCabe IQ with enhanced Eclipse integration, bringing advanced software quality and test analysis to the ever growing Eclipse community.

“Industry research indicates that the Eclipse IDE continues to be utilized by more than half of the Java shops in the world,” says Dale Brenneman, McCabe IQ Development Manager. ”With the release of McCabe IQ’s enhanced Eclipse plug-in, we are now able to deliver the gold standard of software quality and testing solutions to development teams who traditionally only had access to entry level software quality tools.”

McCabe IQ’s enhanced Eclipse integration enables the user to request analysis on all or part of a project with ease, directly from their IDE menu, utilizing a host of software metrics, including the McCabe-authored Cyclomatic Complexity metric.

In addition, this integration gives Eclipse users unprecedented access to leading test measurement technology. McCabe IQ reports on all testing coverage levels, including path coverage, the most comprehensive type of test analysis available. Users will now be able to focus testing on high-risk areas, objectively measure testing effectiveness, increase the defect detection rate during internal testing, assess the time and resources needed to ensure a quality application, and correctly determine when to stop testing. Analysis can be obtained on testing that is initiated either manually, by scripts, or using JUnit.
