  1. Getting Started with Enterprise Architect and Subversion Prepared by: Gerald R. Gray, CIMple Integrations Kay Stefferud, Enernex

  2. Agenda • EA Strengths/Weaknesses • Pre-requisites • Access • Setup & Configuration • Creating common OpenSG diagrams

  3. EA Uses and Benefits • Supports IT system, software, and business processes • Models, designs, builds, and tests software • Uses standard Unified Modeling Language (UML) • Can be used to create: • Business Process Models • Class diagrams and software artifacts • Central repository for process and IT system information • Interfaces with version control package e.g. Subversion • Fast, built-in or custom document generation & HTML

  4. EA Weaknesses • May be a poor choice for complex system diagrams • Visio is “prettier” • PowerPoint also an option • Complex User Interface • Extensive feature set may lead to confusion • Time saving “tricks” difficult to learn • Diagrams not useful if team doesn’t see value • UML/BPM may be used currently at their site • Some users intimidated by tool

  5. Pre-requisites • Sparx Enterprise Architect • http://www.sparxsystems.com.au/ • Version 8 just released • $135 - $699 depending on version • Subversion • Command-line client (required) • http://www.open.collab.net/downloads/subversion/ • TortoiseSVN (optional) • http://tortoisesvn.net/downloads

  6. Access • Credentials to UCAIUG Microsoft SharePoint site • Added to the Source Code Access group in the UCAIUG SharePoint user management (Tony Adams, Kay Clinard) • Coordinate with the appropriate team, OpenADE, OpenADR, OpenAMIENT

  7. Installation • Install • Enterprise Architect (v7.5 or greater) • Subversion command-line client • http://www.collab.net/downloads/subversion/ • TortoiseSVN (Windows) • http://tortoisesvn.net/downloads

  8. Working Directory Creation • C:\OpenSG\Test\Working • In Windows Explorer, right-click on folder • Using TortoiseSVN repo browse to: • http://svn.ucaiug.org/svn/cimugrepo • Enter credentials if prompted • Right-click on folder in left-hand panel • Select Export… to directory created above

  9. EA Configuration • Start Enterprise Architect • Open the project • From main menu select • Project Version Control Version Control Settings…

  10. EA Configuration • Create a unique name • Select Subversion type • Point to working directory • Subversion exe path should pre-populate • Click Save

  11. EA Configuration • Right-click on Package • Select Package Control • Select Add Branch to Version Control… • The key icon is added to each package

  12. Common OpenSG Diagrams • Use Case • Business Process • Integration Requirements • Sequence Diagram

  13. Adding a Use Case • Project Browser • New Package – Storm Trooper Use Cases • New Diagram – Use Case • In the workspace add • Actors, cases, associations • Saves changes, check-in package

  14. Adding a Business Process • Project Browser • Add New Package – Saloon Business Processes • New Diagram – Activity • Open workspace, right-click for Swimlanes and Matrix… • Add swimlanes • Add Activity and flows

  15. Integrations Requirements • Addition to the Activity diagram • Typically a hand-off from the business user to the architect/software • Object flow between two activities, typically spanning actors (swimlanes) • Add requirement (from common tools) • Add Integration to Type • Use object node to identify service

  16. Adding Sequence Diagram • Project Browser • Add New Package – Saloon Sequence Diagrams • New Diagram – Saloon Sequence – Cleanup • Open workspace • Add Actors • Add flows (asynchronous) • Add returns (“Is Return” checkbox)
