Industrialization

9

What is industrialization about ?

Industrialization

• Industrialization can be addressed with a set of • Tools

Most Common answer:

10

• Tools• Methods / Processes• Frameworks

Higher quality

Industrialization

11 Technical issue

Industrialization

Larger scope for the definition, for a software integrator client

• Industrialization• Guarantee of software quality• Proof of proper functioning• Proof of safety, resilience & reliability

12

Insurance & Risk management

• Proof of safety, resilience & reliability• Enable long term maintenance

Industrialization

13

Functional issue

Industrialization

14

Both functional & technical concern

Industrialization

• Traceability & change management• Long term maintenance• Methods / Processes

• IVVQ (Integration, Validation, Verification, Qualification)•

Main concerns

15

• IVVQ (Integration, Validation, Verification, Qualification)• Proof• Certification (Ex. DO178-B)

Heavy processes

Agile programming

16

Agile methodologies: some interesting characteristics…

Agile programming

• Short iterative cycle • XP, Scrum, RAD• Continuous Integration & refactoring

• Requirements driven• Scrum (backlogs)

17

•• Systematic testing

• XP, RAD (permanent validation)

• Use of the best possible tools• RAD

Agile programming

A new set of tools:• Continuous integration engine

• Hudson, continuum, …

• Test framework• Unit (JUnit)•

18

•• Functional (Fitness)• HMI (Selenium, abbot)• Management (testlink)

• A new representation of a project• Semantic data (doap)• Maven2• Ant / Ivy

Application Lifecycle Management

AgileProgramming

Industrialization

•Traceability•Short iterative cycle

19

Application Lifecycle

Management

•Traceability•Change management•IVVQ

•Short iterative cycle•Requirement Driven•Systematic testing•Use of the best possible tools

Application Lifecycle Management

Emerging concepts:

• Continuous integration engine + representation of a project (Maven2) + SCM• Traceability

• Requirements driven + systematic testing

20

• Requirements driven + systematic testing• IVVQ

• Release & dependency control (Maven 2 + RPM tools)• Change management

• Semantic data & BI• reporting• Audit
