DevPartner Fault Simulator

Categories:	Code analysis - Standards verifiers Testing
Author:	Compuware
Latest version:	1.0
Description:	Provides support for testing error handlers, creating a repeatable environment for proactively analyzing and debugging application error-handling code. DevPartner Fault Simulator uses fault simulation to emulate real-world application errors. Features include: - Safe fault simulation: A .NET Framework fault can be simulated either on a line of code or independent of location. Developers can also simulate an environmental failure in the target application. Properties, parameters and conditions associated with every fault make it possible to further refine the simulation. - Reports: Display information about the faults being simulated and how they are being handled as the simulation is taking place. Also provides results about the error handling in the application code upon completion of the simulation. This includes a description of the fault, the current call stack and an error-handler stack for each instance simulated. Simulation results may be saved for later analysis. - User education: The areas in source code where faults can be simulated are highlighted. Additionally, developers can select a line of code within Visual Studio .NET and allow DevPartner Fault Simulator to identify the list of exceptions that can be simulated at that location. This helps you to understand what faults your code must be built to handle. - Visual Studio .NET integration
