Is the Feature Traceability Problem Already Solved?
(Softwaretechnik-Trends Band 44, Heft 2, 2024) Greiner, Sandra; Kehrer, Timo
Reverse engineering feature information from a family of software products or configurable software projects is crucial to systematically support organized reuse. A feature represents a user-visible characteristic of the software which allows for its configuration; the resulting variable source code can optionally be included or may also have to be present in each variant of the software. Thus, tracing features to artifacts in the software project is essential to support systematic reuse. Existing solutions to the problem of identifying and mapping feature information in configurable software, either enforce specific development processes, rely on extensive executions of the software, remain coarse-grained at the level of files, or assume language-specific information. These issues raise the question whether the problem of identifying and mapping features to artifacts in configurable software is already sufficiently solved?
