Open Source UML Tools

PlantUml allows to quickly create some UML diagram using a simple textual description language.

A fast and reliable tool, written in Java 8, for generating professional UML sequence diagrams from text. Supports actors, con-/destructors, threads, broadcasts, notes, and fragments. Can serve as a Javadoc taglet. Exports PDF, (E)PS, SVG, PNG, ... The source code is hosted at http://github.com/sdedit/sdedit

As software architect, you create a set of diagrams describing use-cases, requirements, structural views, behavioral and deployment views. crystal_facet_uml keeps element names and element hierarchies consistent. It exports diagrams in svg, pdf, ps and png formats to be used in text processing systems like docbook, html, latex. This tool runs on your local PC and is based on glib, gdk, gtk, cairo, pango, sqlite.

PlantUml Dependency allows to parse / reverse engineering source files (only Java is supported by now) to generate a PlantUml description, allowing to draw the UML class diagram associated to the source code.

PHPCallGraph generates static call graphs for PHP source code using the CodeAnalyzer of the InstantSVC project and the DOT tool. The graphs can be leveraged to gain a better understanding of large software systems or even to debunk design flaws in them.

cite-effect helps understand, validate and refactor programs through static analysis. After building a database, it reports variable's accesses within call tree(s), in a text format suitable for integration into editors (like jEdit or Emacs).

ObjectBuilder is a C++ CASE tool (CASE, refactoring, documentation generator). It lets you create, manipulate and navigate classes, class relations, class members and class methods at a high level of abstraction.

ATS4 AppModel is an application flow design tool supporting application specification work, model based testing and test script generation. It provides simple interface to manage complex models. ATS4 AppModel is part of Nokia ATS tool family.

The "Architecture Visualizator" parses source code and analyze the object oriented structure as well as the control flow and logic aspects. After that it visualize the results for example as graphviz file.

This is a game.Player has to save his target point(staff).There is an enemy tank. The enemy tank will be trying to kill the staff.If staff is killed then game will be over. And if player can kill the enemy tank then player will win the game.

The CoreASM project focuses on the design of a lean executable ASM (Abstract State Machines) language, in combination with a supporting tool environment for high-level design, experimental validation and formal verification of abstract system models.

Program creates the database table diagrams from databases metadata.

pgDesigner is a Datamodel designer for PostgreSQL written in Gambas language.

DwCase should be an alternative to current data modelleres for databases.

I was tired of the wayward UML tools to explain some simple ideas and share with my colleagues, I created this tool to create simple schema simply. Not perfect but do the job.

A Python programming environment providing memory sizing, profiling and analysis, and a specification language that can formally specify aspects of Python programs and generate tests and documentation from a common source.

JS/UML is a plugin for the Eclipse IDE that reverse-engineers JavaScript code to a UML model which can then be used to generate documentation and other artifacts.

JSeq is a tool to automatically create UML sequence diagrams. It works by following the execution of a Java program, noting each method entry and exit. It then generates a sequence diagram from this information.

JSeqUnit enhances Javadoc documentation with UML sequence diagrams that are generated with the help of JUnit tests. It uses JSeq to trace the execution of test executions. It supports re-engineering of components through improved reverse engineering of methods with the help of sequence diagrams.

Lifecycle Manager allows software engineers to manage all stages in the development lifecycle without losing any knowledge of decisions and changes. This system is a groupware knowledge management system for software development.

This is a modeling tool generating code from activity diagrams. The main goal is to achieve a good code generation. I would like to have different possibilities like HTML mapping from diagrams and Java code generation (maybe others) chosen by the user.

CASE tool

A text-based editor to dynamically create UML Sequence Diagrams.

Display in a UML-like diagram the dependencies of applications developed in NetBeans. Originally meant only to display module dependencies of NetBeans Rich Client Platform applications, thanks to the platform itself, it can display dependencies of "plain" and Maven-based Java projects. To display the dependencies, a new action is made available in the 'Source' menu and in the toolbar. The generated graphs can be saved as images or exported in PlantUML or Gephi formats.

NovaUML is growning on the StarUML project. This project seeks to improve and extend the StarUML software in various ways while maintaining compatability with its api's and standards.
