NuMega

NuMega was a software company founded in 1991 that specialized in developing and selling tools for software developers. Their flagship product was BoundsChecker, a memory debugging tool that helped developers find and fix memory errors in their C/C++ applications. Other popular products included SoftICE, a system-level debugger, and TrueCoverage, a code coverage analysis tool. These tools were widely used in the industry for improving software quality and stability. In 1997, NuMega was acquired by Compuware, a larger software company. Following the acquisition, NuMega's products continued to be developed and marketed under the Compuware brand. The NuMega name eventually faded as a distinct product line, but its legacy lives on through the continued evolution of the debugging and code analysis tools it pioneered. The company's focus on developer productivity and robust error detection significantly impacted the software development landscape of the 1990s.
