Abstract

Systems and methods for facilitating a common platform for multiple users working parallelly in an enterprise environment are described. When a request is received along with requirements for adding a new feature in an existing application, the system fetches contract information associated with the existing application. The system further provides the contract information to a first user and a second user. Post receiving the contract information and requirements, the first user creates one or more test cases and the second user develops a source code for the feature to be added into the existing application. The system executes the one or more test cases for testing the validity of the source code and further integrates the source code into the existing application.

Claims

1. A method of facilitating a common platform for multiple users working parallelly in an enterprise environment, the method comprising:

receiving, by an enterprise system, a request for adding a feature in an existing application, wherein the request comprises requirements associated with the feature;

fetching, by the enterprise system, contract information associated with the existing application, wherein the contract information is indicative of a synchronization relationship between the existing application and the feature;

providing, by the enterprise system, the contract information to a first user and a second user;

facilitating, by the enterprise system, the first user to create one or more test cases using the contract information and the requirements associated with the feature, and the second user to develop a source code for the feature by using the contract information;

generating, by the enterprise system, a pictorial representation of the existing application and the source code, the pictorial representation comprising one or more unified modeling language (UML) diagrams;

performing, by the enterprise system, execution of the one or more test cases, and integration of the source code into the existing application; and

facilitating, by the enterprise system, the first and second users to perform one or more respective tasks in parallel using the UML diagrams and the contract information.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the one or more test cases are at least one of a positive test case and a negative test case.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the contract information is fetched by using a lexical analyzer and a parser.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1, further comprising recommending one or more design patterns to the second user for developing the source code, wherein the one or more design patterns are recommended based on context of the feature and the existing application.

5. An enterprise system for facilitating a common platform for multiple users working parallelly in an enterprise environment, the system comprising:

a processor; and

a memory communicatively coupled to the processor, wherein the memory stores processor-executable instructions, which, on execution, causes the processor to;

receive a request for adding a feature in an existing application, wherein the request comprises requirements associated with the feature;

fetch contract information associated with the existing application wherein the contract information is indicative of a synchronization relationship between the existing application and the feature;

provide the contract information to a first user and a second user;

facilitate the first user to create one or more test cases using the contract information and the requirements associated with the feature, and the second user to develop a source code for the feature by using the contract information;

generate a pictorial representation of the existing application and the source code, the pictorial representation comprising one or more unified modeling language (UML) diagrams;

perform execution of the one or more test cases, and integration of the source code into the existing application; and

facilitate the first and second users to perform one or more respective tasks in parallel using the UML diagrams and the contract information.

6. The enterprise system as claimed in claim 5, wherein the one or more test cases are at least one of a positive test case and a negative test case.

7. The enterprise system as claimed in claim 5, wherein the contract information is fetched by using a lexical analyzer and a parser.

8. The enterprise system as claimed in claim 5, wherein the processor is further configured to recommend one or more design patterns to the second user for developing the source code, wherein the one or more design patterns are recommended based on context of the feature and the existing application.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including instructions stored thereon that when processed by at least one processor cause an enterprise system to perform operations comprising:

receiving a request for adding a feature in an existing application, wherein the request comprises requirements associated with the feature;

fetching contract information associated with the existing application;

wherein the contract information is indicative of a synchronization relationship between the existing application and the feature;

providing the contract information to a first user and a second user;

facilitating the first user to create one or more test cases using the contract information and the requirements associated with the feature, and the second user to develop a source code for the feature by using the contract information;

generating a pictorial representation of the existing application and the source code, the pictorial representation comprising one or more unified modeling language (UML) diagrams;

performing, execution of the one or more test cases, and integration of the source code into the existing application; and

facilitating the first and second users to perform one or more respective tasks in parallel using the UML diagrams and the contract information.

10. The medium as claimed in claim 9, wherein the one or more test cases are at least one of a positive test case and a negative test case.

11. The medium as claimed in claim 9, wherein the contract information is fetched by using a lexical analyzer and a parser.

12. The medium as claimed in claim 9, wherein the instructions further cause the at least processor to recommend one or more design patterns to the second user for developing the source code, wherein the one or more design patterns are recommended based on context of the feature and the existing application.
