AN XML DRIVEN FRAMEWORK FOR TEST CONTROL AND DATA ANALYSIS

An extensible component-based framework has been developed at Fermilab to promote software reuse and provide a common platform for developing a family of test and data analysis systems. The framework allows for configuring applications from components through the use of XML configurations. Extension is easily achieved through the addition of new components, and many application independent components are already provided with the framework. The core of the system has been developed in Java, which guarantees its portability and facilitates the use of object-oriented development technologies.
