Intelligent Analysis and Visualization of Mainframe Programs

Topaz for Program Analysis is part of the Compuware Topaz® suite of mainframe development and testing tools. It helps developers understand unfamiliar or complex mainframe applications through a visual representation of both the code structure and logic as well as the actual I/O and program trail during execution.

Topaz for Program Analysis includes Runtime Visualizer, a feature that provides unprecedented graphical visibility into often-complex interactions between mainframe programs. This visibility makes it easy for veteran and novice developers alike to quickly understand, update and troubleshoot even the oldest and most complex mainframe code.

With Topaz for Program Analysis, developers can:

  • See dynamic, graphical mapping of program-to-program calls
  • Pinpoint performance bottlenecks, inefficiencies and inter-program impacts
  • Analyze and understand deeper program details
  • See a “snapshot” of a program’s real behavior in production under present conditions
  • Group together source code for programs into Java-like “projects”
  • Discover and investigate dependencies across programs and copybooks, without moving code off the mainframe
  • See an instant static visual summary of a single program
  • Support both COBOL and PL/1 applications

 

The Value of Topaz for Program Analysis

  • Helps next-generation developers understand highly complex applications
  • Replaces fear with confidence when maintaining unfamiliar code
  • Enables companies to further leverage their existing mainframe assets
  • Increases developer productivity by offering elegant simplicity in design and usability
  • Improves application quality and delivery speed by producing better change specifications and speeding up the actual time needed to change programs
  • Advances application performance by showing I/O calls that can be used to identify unnecessary program calls
