Andes Technology Corporation has chose and licensed the SuperTest compiler test and validation suite from ACE Associated Compiler Experts, the Dutch compiler and system software technology company. The SuperTest product will be used to enhance testing and validation of Andes’ advanced compilation tools.

Compilers are complex products translating applications into machine code and require extensive testing for language conformance, correctness and quality. With its millions of tests, SuperTest assists both compiler developers to validate their compiler and compiler users to check the provided compilers before use.

According to Charlie Su, ACE has been testing compilers for more than 30 years and the company is pleased to apply the superior testing infrastructure in the SuperTest product to verify and validate compilation tools. It also said that the compiler development tools are the key bridges between the software and hardware and need to be verified like hardware.

Andes Technology Corporation was founded in the Hsinchu Science Based Industrial Park（SiSoft Research Center） in the first half of 2005. The company is specialized in developing high-performance/low-power 32-bit processors and its associated SoC platforms to serve the rapidly growing embedded system applications worldwide.
