Compatibility matrix

This release of Report Generator GUI and for Report Generator for Dashboards functions with the following:

CAST RestAPI
  • ≥ 2.12.6
  • CAST Imaging ≥ 3.4.x-funcrel
 Mandatory. Note that RestAPI URL structure differs as follows:

MIPS Reduction Index (com.castsoftware.mips-redux-index) ≥ 20200518

These extensions are required for Compliance Report generation. Depending on what "standard" you are targeting in your Compliance Report, you can install a combination of extensions:

  • To generate Compliance Reports for MIPS standards, you MUST always install the MIPS Reduction Index (com.castsoftware.mips-redux-index).
  • To generate Compliance Reports for CISQ, ISO-5055 and Security standards, you can install either the CISQ, ISO-5055 and Security Standards extensions or the Quality Standards Mapping extension. If the CISQ, ISO-5055 and Security Standards extensions and the Quality Standards Mapping extension are installed, data is automatically taken from the CISQ, ISO-5055 and Security Standards extensions at all times.
  • If you are using CAST Console ≥ 1.14.0, the Quality Standards Mapping extension is installed with all new source code versions, however, you should ensure that the correct release of the extension is used.
  • If you are using CAST Console ≥ 1.24.0, the ISO-5055 extension is installed with all new source code versions, however, you should ensure that the correct release of the extension is used.
