Gitana: A software project inspector

Abstract The development of software projects entails significant implementation and collaboration activities, typically supported by tools such as issue trackers, code review tools and Version Control Systems. However, these tools only provide a partial view of the project and often lack of advanced querying mechanisms, thus hampering the analysis of the status of the project and endangering the decision making process on the best way to drive the development process. We present Gitana , a software project inspector able to import the activity of the different support tools into a single relational database, thus providing a central point to perform all kinds of cross-cutting analysis on the software project data.
