  • A Platform for Software Debugging and Crash Reporting
    Backtrace - A Platform for Software Debugging and Crash Reporting The Backtrace Vision 1 The Backtrace Platform 2 Capture 2 Analyze 3 Resolve 4 Comparing Backtrace with Generic Error Monitoring Tools 5 Backtrace Advantages 6 Feature & Capabilities List 8 The Backtrace Vision Backtrace was founded with a vision to build the best cross-platform, native application crash and error reporting technology for today’s complex software, video game systems, embedded technology, and IoT devices. The software development teams that work in these environments now have a greater impact on how the company performs. When software fails to perform consistently, customers will disappear and employees will function less efficiently. Backtrace developed a platform that empowers organizations to make new and better choices for investing in software. The Backtrace platform has broken new ground with technology that: A. Captures and analyzes crash data from multiple platforms, including desktop (Windows, Mac), mobile (iOS, Android) server systems (Linux), embedded devices (Linux, RTOS), and video game consoles, with new levels of granularity. B. Provides teams with easy to use analytics to prioritize bugs and application failures based on their impact. C. Enables collaboration and integration with the tools you have in place today to speed ability to resolve the issue. Page 1 of 9 Proprietary The Backtrace Platform Backtrace gives your team the automation and diagnostic tools they need to spot errors that matter, understand their impact, explore the context, and zero in on causes in hours or minutes instead of days or weeks. Backtrace is a turn-key solution that was purpose-built for crash and exception analysis.

  • Discovering Community Patterns in Open-Source: a Systematic Approach and Its Evaluation
    Empirical Software Engineering https://doi.org/10.1007/s10664-018-9659-9 Discovering community patterns in open-source: a systematic approach and its evaluation Damian A. Tamburri1 · Fabio Palomba2 · Alexander Serebrenik3 · Andy Zaidman4 © The Author(s) 2018 Abstract “There can be no vulnerability without risk; there can be no community without vulnerability; there can be no peace, and ultimately no life, without community.” - [M. Scott Peck] The open-source phenomenon has reached the point in which it is virtually impossible to find large applications that do not rely on it. Such grand adoption may turn into a risk if the community regulatory aspects behind open-source work (e.g., contribution guidelines or release schemas) are left implicit and their effect untracked. We advocate the explicit study and automated support of such aspects and propose YOSHI (Yielding Open-Source Health Information), a tool able to map open-source communities onto community patterns,sets of known organisational and social structure types and characteristics with measurable core attributes. This mapping is beneficial since it allows, for example, (a) further investigation of community health measuring established characteristics from organisations research, (b) reuse of pattern-specific best-practices from the same literature, and (c) diagnosis of organ- isational anti-patterns specific to open-source, if any. We evaluate the tool in a quantitative empirical study involving 25 open-source communities from GitHub, finding that the tool offers a valuable basis to monitor key community traits behind open-source development and may form an effective combination with web-portals such as OpenHub or Bitergia. We made the proposed tool open source and publicly available.

  • Design Options of Store-Oriented Software Ecosystems: an Investigation of Business Decisions ∗
    Design Options of Store-Oriented Software Ecosystems: An Investigation of Business Decisions ∗ Bahar Jazayeri1, Olaf Zimmermann2, Gregor Engels1, Jochen K¨uster3, Dennis Kundisch1, Daniel Szopinski1 1 Paderborn University, Germany fbahar.jazayeri,gregor.engels,dennis.kundisch,[email protected] 2 University of Applied Sciences of Eastern Switzerland, Switzerland [email protected] 3 Bielefeld University of Applied Sciences, Germany [email protected] Abstract. Nowadays companies like Apple create ecosystems of third- party providers and users around their software platforms. Often online stores like Apple App Store are created to directly market third-party solutions. We call such ecosystems store-oriented software ecosystems. While the architecture of these ecosystems is mainly derived from busi- ness decisions of their owners, ecosystems with greatly different archi- tectural designs have been created. This diversity makes it challenging for future ecosystem providers to understand which architectural design is suitable to fulfill certain business decisions. In turn, opening a plat- form becomes risky while endangering intellectual property or scarifying quality of services. In this paper, we identify three main design options of store-oriented software ecosystems by classifying existing ecosystems based on similarities in their business decisions. We elaborate on the design options, discuss their main contributions, and provide exemplary ecosystems. Our work provides aspiring ecosystem providers with the reusable knowledge of existing ecosystems and helps them to take more informed architectural decisions and reduce risks in future. Keywords: Software ecosystems, Reusable designs, Variabilities 1 Introduction Software ecosystems have become an emerging architectural approach for many companies to grow. The term software ecosystem is inspired from ecological ecosystems that are the result of an interplay between organisms as well as interactions with a physical environment [1].

  • Making a Software Factory
    Making a software factory INF5750 What is a software factory? ● “A factory (previously manufactory) or manufacturing plant is an industrial site, usually consisting of buildings and machinery, or more commonly a complex having several buildings, where workers manufacture goods or operate machines processing one product into another.” ● A software business, or an open source project, is similar to a factory… It requires tools and processes. ● It’s worth thinking about software development like this Main software factory tools ● Design tools ● Source revision control system ● Build and dependency systems ● Communication and documentation ● Bug reporting and project tools ● Test tools ● Continuous integration tools ● Delivery and deployment tools Continuous integration ● Distributed software development ● Any developer can introduce bugs that can cause project failure ● Extreme Programming → CI ● Implement Unit tests, Acceptance tests and integration tests ● Integration tests check the integrity of the whole system, not just units ● Small code changes → system failure Continuous integration ● The first step is to use source control and a build system that incorporates testing. ● Each developer should test before commit. ● There are lots of automated build systems that compiles, tests and deploys your software. ● DHIS2 uses Jenkins: http://apps.dhis2.org/ci/ Integration loop Developer Automated perspective process Jenkins ● Basic stuff: builds, tests and deploys ● Helps you keep an overview of developers ● Notifies developers if their code breaks ● Tests reports, with history of broken builds ● Help keep track of deployed versions (file fingerprints) ● Extensive list of plugins. Source code management, build triggers, build tools, build wrappers/deployment tools, build notifiers, test reports… ● Deploy artifacts in the Maven repository Some good tips ● Break up tasks.
