Get Development Efficiency
Organizations are under extreme pressure to deliver high-quality releases faster in order to better meet customer demands and product release schedules. Centralized tools teams are being tasked with driving the adoption of tools to help development teams rapidly deliver innovation while maintaining product quality. Coverity Integrity Control enables organizations to establish and enforce policies for quality and efficiency standards, and report on improvements over time. Managers can quickly see which areas have adopted development testing as part of their quality improvement efforts. This increased visibility provides managers with a critical understanding of the areas of risk in their projects and teams and helps ease tool adoption.
Set Common Standards
Almost all organizations receive code from third party providers. Often, third party code is not treated with the same level of rigor as in house developed code which can lead to increased risk to the project and the business. Coverity Integrity Control enables organizations to establish clear and specific acceptance criteria up front such as the amount of high risk defects, the type of defects allowed, or the amount of technical complexity which can be tolerated. This common understanding of quality and security requirements helps improve collaboration. With the click of a button, teams get immediate visualization of the compliance to thresholds and where risk exists in their project by team or supplier.
Companies can easily audit supplier code on-demand and notify third party suppliers of code governance violations by automatically producing and sending a Coverity Software Integrity Report that summarizes the high-risk defects that exist in their software and components. Suppliers can also build policies aligned to established SLAs and self-certify their code upon delivery to their supply chain partners.
Manage Distributed Teams
Managing distributed teams can be a tremendous challenge. Too often managers lack the visibility into the problem areas in their organization that could impact product quality, time to market and overall customer satisfaction. Managers may have a sense that they have a problem area but they lack the concrete data and metrics to get to the root of the problem. Coverity Integrity Control provides managers with a means to establish and enforce consistent standards for quality, security and development efficiency across their organization. Managers can establish specific policies or benchmarks for the organization and track the performance of the individual teams against those policies for clear visibility into areas of risk.
