IBM Rational PurifyPlus is a runtime analysis solution designed to help developers write faster, more reliable code. Runtime analysis includes four basic functions: memory corruption detection, memory leak detection, application performance profiling, and code coverage analysis. IBM Rational PurifyPlus packages support for all four of these functions in a single product with a common install and licensing system.
