Modern software development with the ITK CI/CD toolchain
What does it take to be agile enough to develop premium software, tame mounting complexity, and satisfy the rigorous demands of safety-critical applications – and all while defying the pressure of rapid release cycles? We have the answer – a toolbox brimming with state-of-the-art agile development assets such as ITK CI/CD toolchain developed by our experts at ITK.
An integrated toolchain for abiding software development success
Continuous integration and continuous delivery methods are excellent ways of detecting and fixing bugs at every stage of quality assurance and testing. This is why the CI/CD toolchain is such a valuable asset for custom developments – it supports these efforts from the inceptive phase. Of course, the technical architecture is instrumental in enabling this state-of-the-art method of efficient software development.
Putting companies on the path to achieving and sustaining long-term market success, the benefits of CI/CD extend across the development cycle. It
- Furnishes early feedback on the software’s status
- Enables engineers to continuously develop, test, and improve software
- Assures a consistently high level quality for all components from the individual part to the production line
- Accelerates new functions’ time to market
- Is flexible enough to accommodate any sample and variant
- Provides stable software, including a toolchain engineered for high long-term productivity
- Reduces maintenance costs
- Eases the transition to continuous integration, continuous delivery, and continuous systems engineering (SysDevOps)
German safety certification for the ITK CI/CD toolchain
TÜV SÜD, a German independent Technical Inspection Association, certified ITK’s toolchain to the TCL1 standard (up to ASIL D). The product of a modern software engineering culture, it provides an agile, transparent, and uniform path for ITK Engineering developers to follow. Of course, we apply this certified toolchain in our development projects in Japan, but we also advise customers who wish to engineer toolchains of their own tailored to their particular needs.
