Pressure is mounting on the development process for embedded software-- pressure to produce and move the stuff quickly, pressure to ensure quality amid hundreds of permutations on dozens of targets, andpressure to simplify and standardize on tools, testing, and builds --all to bring the notion of rapid-agile to an hitherto-fore stodgy alcove of software production. Or so I'm reminded this week after a couple of unrelated briefings that hammered home the need for major change in embedded development, one from Wind River Systems, which has rolled out its device software testing solution, Lab Diagnostics, and also Electric Cloud,which is automating and leveraging parallelism in the speeding and consolidation of builds infrastructure (often for embedded projects).
