Static Analysis for ISO 26262 compliance
Part 6 of ISO 26262 addresses product development at the software level, providing tables defining the necessary methods to achieve compliance with the standard.
Static Analysis is particularly valuable in meeting clause 8, «Unit design and implementation,» within part 6 of the standard. QA-MISRA ensures the software adheres to coding standards specified in section 5.4.7 and required by section 8.4.3.d.

Dynamic testing for ISO 26262 compliance
Section 6 of ISO 26262 recommends unit and integration testing. The Cantata testing tool enables developers to automate their unit and integration testing and verify ISO 26262 compliant code on host native and embedded target platforms.
Cantata helps accelerate compliance with the standard’s dynamic testing requirements by automating:

Tool Certification & Qualification
ISO 26262, Part 8 section 11, defines the qualification process for software tools. Accordingly, our dynamic testing tool, Cantata, has been classified and certified by SGS-TÜV GmbH, an independent third-party certification body for functional safety, accredited by Deutsche Akkreditierungsstelle GmbH (DAkkS). Cantata has achieved a Tool Confidence Level (TCL) 1 classification, making it suitable for developing safety-related software according to ISO 26262:2018, up to Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL) D.
Regarding our static analysis tool, QA-MISRA, its Tool Qualification Support Kit (QSK) automatically executes a comprehensive tool qualification verification test suite on the installed tool configuration and generates necessary reports for ISO 26262 tool qualification.
These ISO 26262 tool kits are designed to facilitate our customers’ path to certification. They include everything necessary to18px demonstrate that Cantata and QA-MISRA instill the required confidence in using software tools, aligning with ISO 26262 recommendations. Additionally, the kits provide comprehensive and detailed guidance on leveraging these tools to comply with the necessary software verification activities of ISO 26262.
