Measuring the Quality of Model-Driven Projects with NDT-Quality

Model-driven web engineering (MDWE) is a new paradigm which provides satisfactory results in the development of web software systems. However, as can be concluded from several research works, MDWE provokes traceability problems and the necessity of managing constraints in metamodel instances and transformation executions. The management of these aspects is usually executed manually in the most of MDWE approaches. Nevertheless, model-driven paradigm itself can offer suitable ways to manage them. This chapter presents NDT-Quality, an approach to measure the quality of web projects developed with NDT (navigational development techniques), and offers a view about the application of this tool in real web projects.
