Tools What Why
  • Any computer-based tools which attempt to support
    some aspect(s) of the software life-cycle
  • Becomes more necessary as projects become more
    complex
  • Help team members work together
  • central repository of artifacts produced
  • coordinate workers activities
  • implement process
  • give visibility to project status
  • Automate some developers tasks
  • initially compilers and linkers, then editors,
    then debuggers, ...
  • computer better than human for certain tedious
    tasks

Tools Overview
  • Multiple Categories covering different Workflows
  • Project Management ClearQuest, SoDA
  • Business Modeling Requisite Pro, Rose
  • Requirements Requisite Pro
  • Analysis and Design Rose
  • Implementation Rose, Purify, Quantify
  • Testing Test Factory, PureCoverage, Robot
  • Configuration Management ClearCase
  • Deployment
  • Environment
  • Iteration

4
ClearQuest
  • Tool covering Change Request Management
  • Used for Project Management and over entire
    lifecycle
  • Addresses the single largest cost factor in
    software development CHANGE
  • Help an Organization manage change and track
    product defects over the entire life cycle
  • Change Requests on any artifact created during
    the software development effort.
  • CR tracked from input to disposition through the
    different states (submitted, assigned, opened,
    resolved, verified, postponed)

5
ClearQuest Key Features
  • Workflow completely customizable
  • Enable integration with existing source control
    and testing software
  • Comprehensive Reporting capability gives entire
    visibility on project quality status with trends,
    aging and distribtion plots
  • Web interface enables easy input of Change
    Request from remote team members
  • Workers receive email notification of CRs states
  • Associate Change Requests with evolving software
    development artifacts, across multiple products,
    versions, platforms and releases
  • Scale up for Large Scale Development effort

6
Three Key Components
  • ClearQuest
  • submit, modify, track CR
  • analyze progress through queries, charts, reports
  • ClearQuest Designer
  • for Administrator
  • customize pocesses
  • manage database
  • administer users and users groups
  • ClearQuest Web
  • access db through the web
  • submit CR, run queries

What is a Change Request (CR)
  • Enhancement Request
  • Defect Report
  • Documentation Modification
  • Contains
  • title
  • description field
  • project/component it applies to
  • severity
  • priority
  • Goes from Submitted to Assigned to Open, Pospone,
    Approved, Closed,.
  • Called a Record in ClearQuest

8
Customization
  • Forms
  • add field
  • characterize Read Only fields
  • Type of record
  • software defects, engineering CR,...
  • Automatically send email to team members
  • Restrict Actions to specific users groups
  • Define States and associated actions
  • Assign users privileges for queries creation

9
Reporting
  • Set of predefined reports, queries, charts
  • trend, aging, historical information
  • defects by assigned engineers
  • defects by state and severity
  • Create your own reports
  • use any property to define report
  • example
  • how fast CRs are resolved
  • which component has a lot of defects
  • what defects have been fixed in a release
