Job description
At DAF we are creating a complex software system. In efforts to reduce this complexity within our software we are trying to bundle parts in a smart way. However, our legacy code can still be all over the place, making it hard to understand how different parts of our software interface with each other.
To help us improve our software quality and system performance we want to create a smart, dynamic and easy to understand tool to show the relationship between parts of our software. We want to use this tool to help with architectural choices, debugging and testing.
This task includes:
- Understanding how our software works
- Learn how to pull relevant information from our Simulink models
- Create a way of viewing relations in a dynamic manner (using all kinds of filters)
- Talk to stakeholders for this tool to find out what the requirements are
- Properly test the tool using automated testing
- Automate the updating of the data model after a software build
