Summary

3. Goals of OOMeter
To develop a tool for measuring coupling in OO systems (both source and UML designs) using a wide range of coupling metrics that exist in the literature (including metrics proposed in-house).

4. Previous Work Elish’s tool Built mainly in VB
Parser built in Java using Javadoc and the docklet API
Measures coupling

5. Previous Work (cont’d)
Wasiq’s tool
Built using java and VB
Parser uses SableCC
Measures cohesion
Class Model DB

6. Previous Work (Cont’d)
Motasem’s Work
First attempt to unify the above two
Parser uses SableCC
Gathers elementary metrics
Class Model DB

7. Present Work Attempts to build upon previous works by:
Unifying both coupling and cohesion metrics in a single tool
Defining a clear and well-defined architecture
Separation of elementary metrics DB from higher-level composite metrics
Providing good documentation
Portable code
Use case model
Class model

8. Database Schema

9. Tool Interface Issues: Task Metaphor? Unary vs. Binary Metrics
Visualization of Results
Persistence of Results

10. Java Parser

11. XMI Parser
Sohel’s MS Thesis is partly to develop XMI parser that will collect similar information from a UML model and store in the database

12. Schedule

13. Deliverables Well documented code User Documentation
Technical Documentation (SRS, SDS, etc.)

14. Challenges Configuration Management Tool Model Driven Development Tool
Issue/Bug Tracking System
Complexity of Parsers Testing

15. Summary We have looked at previous work
Examined the goals, schedule, design, challenges and deliverables of the OOMeter project
Now we would like to hear your feedback, your critique of the design, etc.

16. Thank you
