NextGen eXtreme porting - Structured by automation
Abstract
"Maintenance is really the normal state of an XP project" - Beck. Thus porting is a natural candidate for eXtreme Programming and we present a novel tool-based XP methodology for porting C/C++programs. The structure provided by our tooling is designed for scalability, to enable XP on large projects porting enterprise-scale codebases. Overall planning and iteration planning of the methodology are assisted by a novel, first-of-its-kind migration orchestrator tool. Automated test, debugging, and audit function are provided as unified support by our refactoring tool framework. We focus on the orchestrator tool and offer preliminary benchmarks wilh encouraging resulls. Copyright 2005 ACM.
