With DriverStudio, Compuware is building on a long history of award-winning tools for device driver and application development. This innovative suite includes the time-tested SoftICE, DriverWorks and VtoolsD tools, as well as the DriverNetworks framework package. In addition, we've included device driver tools based on the application-level technologies developed for BoundsChecker, TrueTime and TrueCoverage.

What you get is a suite of tools that accelerates the development, debugging, testing, tuning and deployment of device drivers, and helps you meet the quality standards for Windows Hardware Quality Labs (WHQL) certification. DriverStudio brings high-quality tools and modern software engineering practices to the once-neglected area of device driver development.

DriverStudio now integrates with the Visual Studio .NET and Visual Studio 6 development environments through its new DriverWorkbench technology. DriverStudio tools, such as Visual SoftICE, BoundsChecker, TrueTime and TrueCoverage, plug into the DriverWorkbench to provide you with a single place to access everything you need for successful driver development.

Regardless of your level of expertise, phase of development or existing tool preferences, DriverStudio makes it easy for you to build WHQL-certified drivers.
