Abstract | Addressing real projects in software engineering courses is always challenging for instructors, students, customers, and users/clients. Brownfield projects (aka evolution projects) are recognized as the most challenging ones, due to the complexity of keeping the software artifacts under control all over the product life cycle. This article focuses on brownfield projects and presents a shared interactive interface designed to manage and govern the artifacts of software products - Software Artifact Manager (SAM). The main goal of SAM is to allow development teams to evolve all software products throughout their life cycle properly. SAM is a stable tool that has been in use in its current form, since 2014, this work shows the effectiveness of this workspace (SAM) by presenting the results of four software projects/products that were built and evolved throughout the years in a project-based software engineering course over various years. |
