EventStudio Features:

o A different approach to CASE tools: generate vs. draw.

    Man invented handwriting because hieroglyphics did not

    scale very well with the growing complexity of human thought.

    Unfortunately conventional CASE tools of

    today are trying to take us back to hieroglyphics.

    EventStudio takes a different approach:

•      Enter specifications in a simple text based format.
•      No need to struggle with clumsy graphical editors.
•      Automatic layout and formatting. You do not need to

•      Designed for real-world complex problems. Layout

•      Generate sequence diagrams, collaboration diagrams,

     unit test procedures from a single input file.

o Generates sequence diagrams and use cases in

    PDF (Portable Document Format from Adobe).

    Most formatting issues are handled automatically.

•      Generate summary of large sequence diagrams

•      Generate interface sequence diagrams/ use cases

•      Select popular US and ISO paper sizes for PDF documents
•      Generate unit test procedures, component wise summary

o Supports definition of multiple scenarios for

    a Feature. You can automatically generate

    use cases and sequence diagrams for success

    and failure scenarios.

•      Add new success and failure scenarios on the fly
•      Quickly navigate to branching points for different

•      Scenario relationships are represented as trees

o Go beyond UML sequence diagram support. You can depict

•      Timer start, stop and expiry
•      Resource allocation and freeing
•      Action start and action end
•      Dynamic object creation and deletion
•      State transitions
•      Modules, processors and objects and their

•      And much more

o EventStudio reviews the design for all success and

    failure scenarios to catch errors like

•      Free running timers
•      Resource leaks
•      Unfinished actions
•      Dynamic object deletion
•      And much more

o Promotes a semi formal development environment.

    EventStudio gives you the freedom and flexibility

    of text documents while also adding a formal

    component to the design

o Free version upgrades and support.
