Hi all,
One of our developers asked me: "Why do we need to build a UML model of the
software?. Why not to go straight to the code?"
I have two different answers for this:
1. Build a UML model of the software in order to execute it and this way
check the software architecture.
2. Build a UML model of the software in order to have a road map for
understanding the system(for new developers to the project).
The first answer implies maintaining the model in sync with the code. (this
is a problem in Rose!)
The second answer implies that you can stop modeling at a specific level of
detail and let the developers learn more from the code.
So, why do you use a model? What is the point of it?
Many thanks,
Dan Lupu
