Zero-footprint coverage analysis

RapiCoverZero lets you analyze structural coverage from software tests directly from object code on compatible systems.

With no need for source code or modifications to your development environment, this supports coverage analysis up to and including decision coverage for third-party libraries and in projects with negligible target resources for instrumentation.

You can use RapiCoverZero either standalone or along with RapiCover. For more information on RapiCoverZero, see our product page.

Watch our new RapiCover demo videos.

Zero-footprint timing analysis

RapiTimeZero lets you analyze the timing behavior of critical software directly from object code on compatible systems.

Providing execution time metrics and identifying the high-water mark path in your code, RapiTimeZero requires neither source code nor modifications to your development environment, supporting timing analysis of third-party libraries and in projects with negligible target resources for instrumentation.

You can use RapiTimeZero either standalone or along with RapiTime. For more information on RapiTimeZero, see our product page.

Zero-footprint task-level scheduling analysis

RapiTaskZero lets you analyze the task-level scheduling behavior of critical software directly from object code on compatible systems.

RapiTaskZero provides a range of visualization options that help you understand scheduling behavior and identify rare timing events such as priority inversions with no need for source code or modifications to your development environment, supporting the analysis of third-party libraries and in projects with negligible target resources for instrumentation.

You can use RapiTaskZero either standalone or along with RapiTask. For more information on RapiTaskZero, see our product page.

User FAQs

 
"How does zero-footprint verification work?"

Zero-footprint RVS plugins combine information from branch traces collected during the execution with a disassembly of the application to understand the structure of the program and the paths taken through it. They then use this information to determine the coverage, timing behavior or task-level scheduling behavior of the program.

 
"What are the requirements for zero-footprint verification?"

Zero-footprint RVS plugins need branch traces collected during program execution as an input. These are produced by certain compatible hardware or may be collected using some external devices such as debuggers. For more information, see our zero-footprint hardware support.

 
"If I have an active support and maintenance contract, can I get started with zero-footprint verification right away?"


Zero-footprint RVS plugins are licensed separately from those that work by instrumenting source code. Contact us to explore your options.

 
 

 

 
"Is RVS 3.12 backwards-compatible with previous versions?"

Yes. RVS 3.12 is backwards compatible with previous versions. If you're upgrading from RVS 3.6 or earlier, however, we recommend that you set up a new integration to benefit from the improved project management features introduced in RVS 3.8.

 
"I'm running a wavefront version – can I upgrade to RVS 3.12?"

If you're running a wavefront, please contact us to determine whether you can upgrade.
