  • Publication number: 20060265646
    Abstract: A processing tool is disclosed that scans a document looking for predetermined potentially problematic terms (“flag terms”), provides a description of what may be wrong with use of the terms, provides an opportunity for correction, and has the ability to produce reports such as statistical reports on the number of flag terms, the number of flag terms corrected, the point in the development cycle that the corrections were made, and the potential cost savings resulting from identifying the flag terms and correcting them at an early stage in the process.

  • Publication number: 20060225041
    Abstract: An improved method and system is provided for performing regression tests on modifications made to user help documentation software. In the method, expected results based on the anticipated effects of proposed modifications are compared with the actual results detected after the modifications have been made. In one embodiment, a set of expected results is prepared, wherein the set comprises results expected when specified changes are implemented in a prior version of the specified software. Each of the specified changes is then implemented, to produce a modified version of the specified software. The modified version is monitored, to determine actual results caused by the specified changes, and the expected results are compared with the actual results, to detect variances therebetween. Usefully, an automated software tool is configured to rapidly extract specified user help elements from the modified user documentation software.
