A Domain Specific Languages for modeling web pages and provide automatic code generation with a web-testing framework.

The whole process of Meta-modeling in the MetaEdit+ tool rotates around the Meta types represented together as GOPPRR’

Our technique are based on building abstractions of web pages and modeling state-machine-based test behavior using domain specific language

INTRODUCTION

LITERATURE SURVEY• The models is much faster than writing the code by hand.

Industrial experiences at leading-edge players like Nokia and

NASA have consistently shown development becoming five to ten

times faster

• Traditionally software development has been a series of mappings

from the domain idea to design models and on to source code.

• The domain solution must be mapped to the core UML models

representing the implementation in code, generally a small

percentage of the finished code can be automatically generated.

FINDINGS OF SURVEYDSM allows faster development, based on models of the

product rather than on models of the code. It shows major improvement in productivity lower development costs and better quality.

1. Panasonic: 5-fold productivity increases when compared to standard to

standard development method.

2. Nokia: a module that was expected to take 2 weeks now took 1 day from the

start of the design to the finished product.

3. Eads: the quality of the generated code is clearly better simple because the

modeling language rules out errors, eliminating them already in the stage

4. Denso: eliminating our need to outsource software development activities.

The unified modeling language (UML) is a general-purpose modeling language for software Intensive system that is designed to support mostly object oriented programming.

UML originally meant a very low level of generation

EXISTING SYSTEM

The general tools do not support the requirements that done by the modeling tool it contains several benefits like time, maintenance cost, fast creation, accuracy.

RESEARCH PROPOSAL

Domain-specific modeling (DSM) is a new software methodology often also includes the idea of code generation-automating the creation of executable source code directly from the Domain-Specific Language models.

D S M

MetaProgramming tools significantly decrease the required effort to create integrated Domain-Specific Environments.

MetaProgramming tools decrease the development time of generator.

It’s environment enables the rapid modification/adaptation of application by simply modifying DSM models

Multiprogramming toolset support environment evolution.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF TOOLS

RSA provides the UML extension mechanism and allows generating editors for such profiles

RATIONAL SOFTWARE ARCHITETURE

Eclipse is an open source and extensible java based platform that provides many useful services for the creation of textual graphical editor

ECLIPSE MODELING FRAMEWORK

The Generic Modeling Environment (GME), is a Windows-based, domain specific, model program mixture tool for creating and evolving domain specific models.

GENERIC MODELING ENVIRONMENT

It is a web based tool for Domain Specific Modeling, everybody can find appropriate DSML on the cloud, and DSML improve productivity and quality of software because the source code was generated from abstract model

CLOOCA TOOL

It includes general CASE for object and relationships for the diagram editor, object model and graph browsers and property dialogs. The DSM developer need only specify the modeling language.

METAEDIT+

The idea of automating software development with CASE tools is by no means new, but in many cases the adoption and implementation of this idea has been less than perfect. The main problem with traditional CASE tools has been the inflexibility of their method support.

CONCLUSION & FUTURE ENHANCEMENT

The tool MetaEdit+ allows to creating a well-defined Domain Specific Language as separate Metamodel from the selected data warehouse.

The created models have more widespread framework called GOPPRR is available in MetaEdit+ data Warehouse.

In the future this modeling language and the related tool will be investigated more by applying them in different new web site development projects at the requirement analysis stage, thereby achieving greater approbation and higher precision in each of their components.
