CASE Taxonomy - part 1

• Business process engineering tools
• represent business data objects, their
  relationships, and flow of the data objects
  between company business areas
• Tools Gliffy, Lucidchart, ARIS Express
• Process modeling and management tools
• represent key elements of processes and provide
  links to other tools that provide support to
  defined process activities
• Tools Zoho Creator, Process Street, QuickBase
• Project planning tools
• used for cost and effort estimation, and project
  scheduling
• Tools Atoll, 2plan, project plan
• Risk analysis tools
• help project managers build risk tables by
  providing detailed guidance in the identification
  and analysis of risks
• Tools KM Risk assessment tool, Project Risk
  Analysis

CASE Taxonomy - part 2

• Requirements tracing tools
• provide systematic database-like approach to
  tracking requirement status beginning with
  specification
• Tools Open Source Requirements Management Tool,
  LDRA
• Metrics and management tools
• management oriented tools capture project
  specific metrics that provide an overall
  indication of productivity or quality,
  technically oriented metrics determine metrics
  that provide greater insight into the quality of
  design or code
• Tools Halstead Metrics Tool, Kalibro Metrics
• Documentation tools
• provide opportunities for improved productivity
  by reducing the amount of time needed to produce
  work products
• Tools Doxygen, DocItOut

CASE Taxonomy - part 3

• System software tools
• network system software, object management
  services, distributed component support, and
  communications software
• Tools PlayStation Vita software, PlayStation 3
  software
• Quality assurance tools
• metrics tools that audit source code to determine
  compliance with language standards or tools that
  extract metrics to project the quality of
  software being built
• Tools Cause-and-effect diagram, Histogram,
  Stratification
• Database management tools
• RDMS and OODMS serve as the foundation for the
  establishment of the CASE repository
• Tools Adminer, DBComparer, Firebird

CASE Taxonomy - part 4

• Software configuration management tools
• uses the CASE repository to assist with all SCM
  tasks (identification, version control, change
  control, auditing, status accounting)
• Tools Perforce, Rational Clearcase
• Analysis and design tools
• enable the software engineer to create analysis
  and design models of the system to be built,
  perform consistency checking between models
• Tools SSADM Diagram, EDRAW MAX, SmartDraw
• PRO/SIM tools
• prototyping and simulation tools provide software
  engineers with ability to predict the behavior of
  real-time systems before they are built and the
  creation of interface mockups for customer review
• Tools ProSim Ternary Diagram, ProSimPlus,
  LogixPro-500 PLC

CASE Taxonomy - part 5

• Interface design and development tools
• toolkits of interface components, often part
  environment with a GUI to allow rapid prototyping
  of user interface designs
• Tools Almost Flat UI, uikit
• Prototyping tools
• enable rapid definition of screen layouts, data
  design, and report generation
• Tools EaSynth ForeUI, InVision, Justinmind
• Programming tools
• compilers, editors, debuggers, OO programming
  environments, fourth generation languages,
  graphical programming environments, applications
  generators, and database query generators
• Tools Dreamweaver CS6, Eclips php, Koding

CASE Taxonomy - part 6

• Web development tools
• assist with the generation of web page text,
  graphics, forms, scripts, applets, etc.
• Tools Task Runner, Template Engine, Foundation 3
• Integration and testing tools
• data acquisition (get data for testing)
• static measurement (analyze source code without
  using test cases)
• dynamic measurement (analyze source code during
  execution)
• simulation (simulate function of hardware and
  other externals)
• test management (assist in test planning,
  development, and control)
• cross-functional (tools that cross test tool
  category boundaries)
• Tools QuerySurge, JSystem

CASE Taxonomy - part 7

• Static analysis tools
• code-based testing tools, specialized testing
  languages, requirements-based testing tools
• Tools CodePeer, CppDepend, Astrée
• Dynamic analysis tools
• intrusive tools modify source code by inserting
  probes to check path coverage, assertions, or
  execution flow, non-intrusive tools use a
  separate hardware processor running in parallel
  with processor containing the program being
  tested
• Tools Sonarqube, Cast Software
• Test management tools
• coordinate regression testing, compare actual and
  expected output, conduct batch testing, and serve
  as generic test drivers
• Tools TestRail, Xqual XStudio, PractiTest

CASE Taxonomy - part 8

• Client/server testing tools
• exercise the GUI and network communications
  requirements for the client and server
• Tools SocketTest, TCP Client Server
• Reengineering tools
• reverse engineering to specification tools
• generate analysis and design models from source
  code, where used lists, and other design
  information
• code restructuring and analysis tools
• analyze program syntax, generate control flow
  graph, and automatically generates a structured
  program
• on-line system reengineering tools
• used to modify on-line DBMS
• Tools Creen c, ASM, CafeBabe
