  • Hardware Testing Integration: Run tests directly on target hardware boards, sometimes simultaneously across multiple boards connected to a server. 

  • Comprehensive Testing: Our pipelines include a variety of tests and checks, including:

    • Static Analysis: Identify potential issues and improve code quality.
    • Unit Tests: Verify individual components for correctness and reliability.
    • Integration Tests: Ensure seamless interaction between various software modules.
    • Build Tests: Validate the build process for consistency and correctness.
    • Code Appearance Test: Enforce coding standards using tools like Astyle or Clang-Format.
    • Documentation Generation: Automatically generate Doxygen documentation to maintain code clarity and transparency.
    • Code Architecture Analysis: Evaluate and optimize code structure for improved maintainability.
    • Code Complexity Analysis: Identify areas of code that may be difficult to understand or maintain.
  • IDE Expertise: Benefit from our experience working with common and leading embedded software IDEs such as Keil uVision, IAR, Eclipse, Visual Studio, Visual Code and more. We adapt to your preferred development environment for seamless integration and collaboration.

CI/CD DevOps Services for Embedded Software
Functional Safety (FuSa) Consulting and Compliance

Embedded Software Development for Safety-Critical Systems

We build embedded software end-to-end—clean architecture, robust implementation, and audit-friendly evidence. Whether it’s a new platform, feature acceleration, or refactoring legacy code, we deliver production-ready firmware with reliability and compliance in mind.

What we do

  • Platform & low-level: BSP, drivers, HAL, bootloaders, power & memory management, RTOS configuration.

  • Connectivity & stacks: BLE, UART/SPI/I²C, TCP/IP, CAN, USB, file systems, security primitives.

  • Application & control: state machines, data acquisition, safety mechanisms, diagnostics, logging.

  • Quality & automation: unit/integration testing, static analysis, coverage, hardware/simulator test rigs, CI/CD.

Compliance-ready by design
Our workflows align to IEC 62304, ISO 26262, IEC 61508 and MISRA C/C++ coding rules. We provide requirements traceability, test protocols & reports, and coverage metrics to support audits and submissions.

Typical deliverables
Architecture/design docs, implementation, test suites, traceability matrices, coverage reports, and release documentation.

Where we operate
Medical devices, automotive, industrial control, and other safety-critical environments.

Development Process & Expert Tools Setup

Streamline your embedded software development with our tailored processes and expert tool setup. We equip your team with the essential tools and knowledge to enhance efficiency and productivity.

  • Version Control Mastery: Implement industry-standard version control tools like Git, hosted on platforms such as GitHub or GitLab.

  • Code Architecture Improvement: Leverage our custom architecture analysis tools or expert assistance in setting up commercial tools like Lattix Architect or Axivion Architecture Verification to optimize your codebase. Ensure a well-defined structure for improved scalability and maintainability.

  • Agile Development Practices: Embrace agile methodologies with robust development processes, including branching strategies, pull requests, and code reviews.

  • Automation Integration: Automate repetitive tasks with Jenkins and establish continuous integration and deployment pipelines (CI/CD) for seamless workflows. Utilize cloud services to enhance scalability and flexibility in your development process.

  • Code Quality Assurance: Employ static analysis tools and unit testing frameworks to uphold code quality standards and minimize errors. We have developed our own customized unit tests frameworks ideal for embedded systems and that work with FuSa compilers with limited standard libraries to work with bare-metal or RTOS architecture.

Why Choose Novodes for Your Embedded Software Needs?

At Novodes, we help safety-critical teams ship reliable firmware by delivering three co-equal core services—choose exactly what you need, or combine them for end-to-end coverage.

  1. Embedded Software Development: BSP/drivers/HAL, RTOS integration, comms stacks, bootloaders, and application state machines—delivered with the same rigor and traceability.
  2. Unit Tests and Integration Tests: Tailored from function-level to app-level simulations with coverage goals, CI/CD automation, and early bug trapping—using open-source and certified tools (Parasoft C++test, Cantata, Testwell CTC++), both white box and black box tests.
  3.  CI/CD for Embedded: Cloud-backed pipelines (Jenkins/GitHub Actions/Docker) with multi-compiler builds, simulator + on-target/HIL testing, static/unit/integration checks, style/architecture gates, auto docs, artifact versioning, and clear dashboards.

We work in regulated environments and align with IEC 62304, ISO 26262, IEC 61508, and MISRA C/C++, providing the evidence and traceability you need.
