Talk
The final talk builds on the prior talks and discusses how the demonstrated approach can be abstracted and applied to other MDE tools based on the Eclipse IDE. Automating development processes requires tools to be accessible via the command line to enable processes to be scripted (e.g. Bash scripts). MDE tools are typically built with a GUI as their primary interface which is usually built on top of the Eclipse IDE, and command-line access is not always available. However, the Eclipse IDE provides workflow automation facilities via Apache Ant. The talk provides an overview of how to create your own tools for practising MDE-DevOps.
