[Tools] Another SMART tool for UML
SMART is described on its site as "a UML modeling tool based on UML2.0 ('UML Modeler') with a tool for test driven development of models." The approach taken for SMART is very different from most other UML tools. It is designed for Test Driven Development of Models (TDDM) and is the result of a research project integrating AGILE and Model-based methodologies at Hayashi Laboratory in Kobe-University. Not all diagrams are supported and, again, the approach is rather different. It appears that source will be provided at some point, as there is a place-holder for it on the project's web page. After a walk-through of some of the demos and tutorials, I think this tool bears a closer look. The TDDM approach and the use of "executable models" mark SMART out as potentially quite useful.
