Abstract:
The programming of classic software systems is well-supported by integrated development environments (IDEs). They are able to give immediate information about syntax and some logic failures. Although service compositions are widely used within modern systems, such a support for building service compositions is expandable. In this paper, we plead for the building of an IDE for service compositions, which enables immediate failure feedback during the development. For this, there is the need for new research activities on occurring failures and how they can be found. Since most current failure finding techniques are based on accurate approaches, e.g., state space exploration, we show in a case study that the application of accurate techniques is not a suitable solution for IDEs. In most cases, they are either too time consuming or their accurate output does not lead easily to the root of a failure. As a result, we also plead for new advanced analyses of service compositions.
