PRQA Framework 2.4

PRQA Framework is an enterprise platform from Programming Research designed to manage and scale static code analysis for C and C++ development. It orchestrates PRQA’s analyzers (QAC and QAC++), providing a consistent way to enforce coding standards, measure code quality, and demonstrate compliance across teams and projects.

Key capabilities:

• Standards compliance: Automates checking against widely used guidelines such as MISRA C, MISRA C++, and CERT.
• Centralized policy management: Defines and shares rule configurations, thresholds, and coding policies to keep projects aligned.
• Baselines and deviations: Separates legacy issues from new findings and manages justified exceptions with full traceability.
• Reporting and metrics: Produces detailed, audit-ready reports and trend analyses to track quality over time.
• Toolchain integration: Works with common build systems, IDEs, and CI/CD pipelines; supports command-line and scripted automation.
• Team governance: Offers centralized configuration, permissions, and logging to support enterprise workflows.

Often used alongside a server-based dashboard component, PRQA Framework helps teams detect defects earlier, apply standards consistently, and simplify compliance evidence for safety- and security-critical software.

PRQA Framework is developed by Programming Research. The most popular versions of this product among our users are: 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4. The name of the program executable file is qagui.exe.
