A Tool-Based Approach for Essentializing Software Engineering Practices

Software Engineers work using highly diverse methods and practices, and general theories in software engineering are lacking. A recent attempt at creating a common ground in the area of software engineering methodologies has been the Essence Theory of Software Engineering. Essence is a method-agnostic progress management framework and a meta-method for Software Engineering (SE). However, tooling for Essence is still lacking. Without dedicated tools and other instruments, a meta-method such as Essence is cumbersome to utilize by practitioners and students. Indeed, Essence currently suffers from a lack of widespread practitioner adoption. In this paper, we thus present an Open Source tool for essentializing methods and practices: Essencery. We conduct a qualitative evaluation of the tool through a quasi-formal experiment and a set of semi-structured interviews. Based on this data, we improve Essencery iteratively before it is utilized in a large-scale project-based course as a proof of concept.
