Case Study: Lockheed Martin achieves higher software quality and faster integration testing with QA Systems AdaTEST 95

Lockheed Martin - Customer Case Study

Lockheed Martin, a major aerospace and defense contractor, faced the challenge of performing stringent, mission-critical unit testing for the F-22 fighter's software, which was mandated to achieve 100% code coverage. To facilitate this extensive testing, particularly on a new cross-compiler target environment, they engaged with vendor QA Systems to evaluate their AdaTEST 95 tool.

QA Systems provided AdaTEST 95, which was successfully deployed for unit testing, enabling automated test execution and comprehensive coverage analysis on the target processor. The solution was instrumental in identifying compiler faults and allowed for complete automation of regression testing. The results were significant; the use of QA Systems' tool was credited with helping deliver the first release on time, vastly improving software quality, and drastically reducing integration testing times for the 85,000 SLOC project.
