1. A computer implemented method comprising:
retrieving a test comprising code for testing whether a software compiler complies with a software coding rule, wherein the code does not comply with the software coding rule;
submitting the test to a first software compiler, the first software compiler associated with a first vehicle component;
submitting the test to a second software compiler, the second software compiler associated with a second vehicle component different from the first vehicle component;
receiving, from the first software compiler, a first indication of whether the first software compiler compiled the test;
receiving, from the second software compiler, a second indication of whether the second software compiler compiled the test; and
in response to the first indication indicating the first software compiler compiled the test or the second indication indicating the second software compiler compiled the test, generating an alert indicating that either one of the first software compiler or the second software compiler does not comply with the software coding rule.
