Cython vs. Python vs. Testwell CTC++ vs. imageio Comparison Chart

Cython is an optimizing static compiler for both the Python programming language and the extended Cython programming language (based on Pyrex). It makes writing C extensions for Python as easy as Python itself. Cython gives you the combined power of Python and C to let you write Python code that calls back and forth from and to C or C++ code natively at any point. Easily tune readable Python code into plain C performance by adding static type declarations, also in Python syntax. Use combined source code level debugging to find bugs in your Python, Cython, and C code. Interact efficiently with large data sets, e.g. using multi-dimensional NumPy arrays. Quickly build your applications within the large, mature, and widely used CPython ecosystem. The Cython language is a superset of the Python language that additionally supports calling C functions and declaring C types on variables and class attributes.

Testwell CTC++ is a powerful instrumentation-based code coverage and dynamic analysis tool for C and C++ code. With certain add-on components CTC++ can be used also on C#, Java and Objective-C code. Further, again with certain add-on components, CTC++ can be used to analyse code basically at any embedded target machines, also in very small ones (limited memory, no operating system). CTC++ provides Line Coverage, Statement Coverage, Function Coverage, Decision Coverage, Multicondition Coverage, Modified Condition/Decision Coverage (MC/DC), Condition Coverage. As a dynamic analysis tool, CTC++ shows the execution counters (how many times executed) in the code, i.e. more than a plain executed/not executed information. You can also use CTC++ to measure function execution costs (normally time) and to enable function entry/exit tracing at test time. CTC++ is easy to use.
