SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Analyzes the cascade impact of modifying a component by traversing the project ontology's dependency graph to inform change decisions and risk mitigation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Cascade analysis through the ontology dependency graph to reveal direct and indirect effects of changes.
  • Risk assessment and prioritization based on affected entities, dependencies, tests, and pattern relations.
  • Guided workflow for impact evaluation and change-management planning.

Quick Start

Analyze a target component to reveal cascade effects through the ontology graph and identify associated risks.

FAQPage Schema
How do I assess the cascade impact of changing a component in a dependency graph?

You can assess cascade impact by traversing the project ontology's dependency graph to locate affected entities and calculate risk scores. This approach maps both direct and indirect dependencies to guide change-management decisions.

How does ontology-based risk assessment work for change management?

Ontology-based risk assessment works by querying a structured dependency graph to evaluate affected entities, test coverage, and pattern relations. It generates a structured risk assessment that prioritizes mitigation efforts based on the cascade effects of a proposed change.

Can I limit the exploration depth when mapping direct and indirect dependencies?

Yes, you can limit exploration depth when mapping dependencies. The analysis supports depth-limited exploration and direction controls, allowing you to target only outgoing, incoming, or both types of relations to constrain the scope of the impact search.

Do I need a specific ontology file format to perform dependency graph queries?

Yes, the analysis requires ontology data at shinchan-docs/ontology/ontology.json. This file provides the dependency graph structure and pattern relations required to execute graph queries and generate risk scoring outputs.

What does a dependency graph impact analysis return for modified components?

A dependency graph impact analysis returns a structured risk assessment and recommended actions. It identifies affected entities, evaluates test coverage gaps, and scores the risk level of the cascade effects to guide change-management planning.
