Abstract

Twenty-two programming tools were introduced in coordinated exercises as part of a programming methods course. Twenty-two or twenty-four graduate students with work experience responded to a survey asking about previous and intended use of the tools. The survey showed that many tools were new and useful to the students. My conclusion is that it is worthwhile to incorporate a module on coding quality and tools in software engineering programs.
