Circumstances:
1.Common systems development methodology being used e.g. Structured
SystemsAnalysis and Design Methodology (SSADM), Rapid Application Development
(RAD) CASE tools ensure that all standards related to a given methodology are adhered to
thus guaranteeing software quality.
2.Group working
CASE tools organize and correlate group design components and provide rapid access to
them via a design repository.
3.Complex graphic features required in the system
CASE tools provide facilities for generating complex screen designs and implementing the
designs through code.
4.System composed of many program modules
CASE tools automate code generation thus reducing systems development time.
5.High degree of systems reliability a must
CASE tools provide facilities for rigorous testing thus guaranteeing high systems reliability.
6.Systems analysis and design is tedious and error prone
CASE tools automate the tedious and error prone portions of systems analysis and design
thus reducing the time spent on systems analysis and design and hence the overall systems
development time is reduced.
