Description

A software engineering platform that automatically creates programs and databases by designing information systems and automatically performs tests.

The present invention relates to a software engineering platform that automatically creates programs and databases by designing an information system and automatically performs tests, and in particular, relates to a software engineering platform that easily implements systems and screens required in the real world.

Recently, project ordering parties, including public institutions, have developed or placed an order for software using a separate ordering method or a remote development system, and then verify and evaluate the developed software.

The separate ordering method was conventionally mainly used for civil engineering and building design and construction, and this is a method in which a design operator and a construction operator are separately ordered and the design operator and the construction operator are separately determined and proceeded. Recently, with the revision of the Software Promotion Act, which includes the contents of "the heads of state agencies, etc. are required to write detailed software business requirements when placing an order for a software business, and to order separate analysis or design projects for this purpose." Separate ordering has been enacted. This separate ordering method is a method that a developer can develop only when the design operator clearly completes the requirements verification.

The remote development method is a system in which the software design area and the software development and operation area are different. That is, it is a method of designing software in detail in a remote location, but developing and implementing software based on the analysis design output of the remote location in a development site, which is another area. In this remote site development method, various communication must be formed between the remote site and the development site. Remote site development is also fully permitted under the recently revised SW Promotion Act and is expected to increase gradually.

However, when designing a program through the conventional separate ordering and remote development methods, after the developer, the ordering party, and the customer verify the designed program or software, and then the process of modifying it according to the verification result is repeated, the verification and modification time is delayed. there was. In other words, after software design and development, the time required in the cycle of modifying and re-verifying according to the verification results and requirements of the ordering party or customer was inevitably delayed. had to be lowered.

Accordingly, there is a need for a technology that can easily implement systems and screens required in the real world, even for business and general users.
