Abstract

Developing service-oriented software involves dealing with multiple languages, platforms, artefacts, and tools. The tasks carried out during development are varied as well; ranging from modeling to implementation, from analysis to testing. For many of these tasks, the SENSORIA project has provided tools aiding developers in their work - with a specific focus on tools based on rigorous formal verification methods, but also including modeling, transformation, and runtime tools. To enable developers to find, use, and combine these tools, we have created a tool integration platform, the SENSORIA Development Environment (SDE), which a) gives an overview of available tools and their area of application, b) allows developers to use tools in a homogeneous way, re-arranging tool functionality as required, and c) enables users to stay on a chosen level of abstraction, hiding formal details as much as possible. In this chapter, we give an in-depth review of the SDE, integrated tools, and ways of using tools in combination for developing and verifying service-oriented software systems.
