摘要

供应商经常声称生产力和质量的改进是CASE技术的好处。特别是，在系统开发生命周期的构建阶段，更低的缺陷率和更少的维护被认为是好处。然而，几乎没有经验证据支持这些说法。目前的研究使用ISO/IEC 9126质量定义检查后端和集成的CASE工具对最终应用程序质量的影响。结果表明，使用CASE工具开发的软件质量在可靠性、可维护性和可移植性方面优于传统开发的系统，但改进的程度受到用于开发的特定CASE工具的影响。

Software quality and CASE tools

Vendors often claim that productivity and quality improvements are benefits of CASE technology. In particular lower defect rates and reduced maintenance are cited as benefits during the construction phase of the systems development lifecycle. However there is little empirical evidence to support these claims. The current research examines the impact of both back-end and integrated CASE tools on the quality of the resultant application using the ISO/IEC 9126 quality definition. The results suggest that the quality of software developed using CASE tools is better than conventionally developed systems with respect to reliability, maintainability and portability but the degree of improvement is affected by the particular CASE tool used for development.
