Inheriting Legacy C/C++ Code: Where Do I Start?

Watch to learn how programs across the defense sector are using Parasoft’s C/C++test solution to quickly baseline an in-depth understanding of inherited code while also creating the foundation for its safe evolution going forward.

In the defense sector, many applications targeted for the development of new features supporting new requirements frequently leverage inherited codebases from earlier iterations of the system, integration source libraries, third-party subsystems, and so on.

This inherited code is often not well understood and begs questions.

  • How well was this code tested before?
  • How safe and secure is the code we’re about to use?
  • How do I reduce the risk of breaking existing functionality as we evolve the code?

On the journey toward successful delivery of these systems, it’s important to understand where you’re starting from in order to know where success is going to lead you.
