A Model Metrics Tool to Support Software Quality Assurance
Abstract
This paper presents XMIMetricsTool, a model metrics tool developed to assure software quality from the beginning of its life cycle. The tool is generic and free. It calculates the metrics by reading XMI files (XML Metadata Interchange), generated from the class model within the system. Therefore, faults can be detected early, not evolving to the development phase and, thus, reducing the cost of their correction and maintenance. Moreover, the tool meets some of the expected results in the Measure Process of Mps.Br (Brazilian Software Process Improvement).Key words: XMIMetricsTool. Model metrics tool. Software quality assurance.Downloads
