OpenTV Corp., a software and technology provider of advanced digital television solutions, reportedly has entered into collaboration with Coverity, a major player in software integrity solutions, to further complement OpenTV’s middleware testing environment.

 
OpenTV officials said that starting this month, the company will offer Coverity (News - Alert) Static Analysis software models to its integration and development customers and partners. Company officials said that these Coverity models are expected to help OpenTV (News - Alert) customers and partners enhance the quality and performance of the integration work they are able to perform with OpenTV’s middleware in their own development labs, thereby saving a significant amount of time in the integration phase of an OpenTV customer launch.
 
“OpenTV is committed to quality, performance and improving time-to-market for its customers,” said Joel Zdepski, SVP and general manager, Middleware at OpenTV, in a statement.
 
Zdepski said that OpenTV’s vast global footprint and partnership with multiple set-top box manufacturers requires a strong testing environment.
 
He said that partnering with Coverity is yet another example of how the company is ensuring that the customers are receiving the most reliable middleware technology available today so that they can in turn provide the best viewing experience to their subscribers.
 
“Coverity is very excited to work with OpenTV and provide our expertise in proactively analyzing the integrity of software component integrations,” said Dave Peterson, chief marketing officer at Coverity.
 
Peterson said that Coverity Static Analysis models will allow for OpenTV integration partners to save significant time by catching issues early in the integration process and help avoid software problems caused by changes in manufacturing and regional requirements, and upgrades and configurations.
 
According to company officials, Coverity Static Analysis models help OpenTV integration and development partners to analyze the integrity of OpenTV middleware integrations without shipping source code.
 
This, officials said, benefits OpenTV partners and customers by saving time and reducing costs of integration work and custom development and accelerates time-to-market of OpenTV solutions and services to customers.
