Popularity of CASE

Why haven't we taken to == CASE == the way we took to third generation language, to micro-computers, or to computing in general?

Interesting question, but perhaps not one that this Wikipedia article should try to answer. This kind of historical analysis is likely to raise controversy and POV. Getting a useful and balanced article describing the facts alone is hard enough. --RichardVeryard 07:38, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Criterion for listing of CASE tools

I wonder what was the criterion used to list some CASE tools. By taking a look at the list as it is now (Feb 8 2005), some reader could get the impression that the list is somewhat exhaustive, or that all CASE tools are commercial, closed source.

Of course, there are lots of alternatives in the free software/open source worlds, not worth mentioning becaues they are inmature, or just poor quality alternatives. However there are some others that deserve attention: attention from the readers. I would particularly like to suggest the addition of ArgoUML.

I see nothing about CASE as used to create and track requirements as they relate to a test script/plan. CASE is also quite important in that regard. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_engineering#Process_and_methodology

Don't forget the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) - requirements analysis is very important.
