Abstract

Modification analysis is an essential phase of most software maintenance processes, requiring decision makers to perform and predict potential change impacts, feasibility and costs associated with a potential modification request. The majority of existing techniques and tools supporting modification analysis focusing on source code level analysis and require an understanding of the system and its implementation. In this research, we present a novel approach to support the identification of potential modification and re-testing efforts associated with a modification request, without the need for analyzing or understanding the system source code. We combine Use Case Maps with Formal Concept Analysis to provide a unique modification analysis framework that can assist decision makers during modification analysis at the requirements level. We demonstrate the applicability of our approach on a telephony system case study.
需求级修改分析支持框架
修改分析是大多数软件维护过程的基本阶段,它要求决策者执行并预测与潜在修改请求相关的潜在更改影响、可行性和成本。大多数支持修改分析的现有技术和工具都关注于源代码级别的分析,并且需要对系统及其实现的理解。在这项研究中,我们提出了一种新的方法来支持识别与修改请求相关的潜在修改和重新测试工作,而不需要分析或理解系统源代码。我们将用例图与形式化概念分析结合起来,以提供一个独特的修改分析框架,它可以在需求级别的修改分析期间帮助决策者。我们演示了我们的方法在电话系统案例研究中的适用性。
