The authors provide a high-level discussion of tools successfully used in today's software engineering projects. Beyond state-of-the-art technology and current trends, the book also provides a discussion of visions and possible future trends of software development. It explains how tools support several activities in a software engineering life cycle. Tools for managing work products, for requirements engineering, design, coding, testing, version control, configuration management, deployment, and documentation are considered, as are tools for project management and tracking. The book summarizes the features of each class of software engineering tools on a conceptual level, so that the reader is able to estimate the potential risks and rewards of various software tools to decide which is best suited for their task. This makes the book a valuable resource for software developers, solution providers, decision makers and project managers.
