What is a cps tester?

A cps tester is a tool (or suite of tools) used to test the safety and reliability of devices that are programed in C and/or C++. A CPS tester is also known as a conformance, static analysis, or static analysis tool. It is designed to assess the use of proper coding practices, identify and prevent errors, help catch regressions, and provide reports to developers on the results of their coding.

The most common type of CPS tester works by analyzing the code for any potential problems or issues before the code is compiled into an executable program. This helps developers identify any potential problems early on in their process, reducing development time and ensuring reliable code in less time than it would take if errors were only spotted after compilation and execution. By doing this at the developer's end, there can be much more control over what gets produced into a product shipped to customers.

A CPS Tester contains a variety of tests including standards tests like MISRA (Motor Industry Software Reliability Association), which has strict rules around testing code that should be followed when developing software for automotive industry; performance tests which measure how quickly code executes; dependability tests like memory leakage; scalability tests; security tests such as support for secure socket layer (SSL); correctness tests making sure that no logical errors occurred in the code; unit test generators allowing developers to quickly construct simple test cases before compilation begins; and automated refactoring tools allowing coders to make changes quickly without breaking existing functionality.
