“…Therefore, specification languages can be easily adopted to our approach. Users can select a specification language from the exisiting ones or develop new domain-specific languages for the specification [23]. The usual specification methods support only one specification language at all.…”

Testing is one of the most indispensable tasks in software engineering. The role of testing in software development has grown significantly because testing is able to reveal defects in the code in an early stage of development. Many unit test frameworks compatible with C/C++ code exist, but a standard one is missing. Unfortunately, many unsolved problems can be mentioned with the existing methods, for example usually external tools are necessary for testing C++ programs.In this paper we present a new approach for testing C++ programs. Our solution is based on C++ template metaprogramming facilities, so it can work with the standard-compliant compilers. The metaprogramming approach ensures that the overhead of testing is minimal at runtime. This approach also supports that the specification language can be customized among other advantages. Nevertheless, the only necessary tool is the compiler itself.

Learning how to be programmer and uralitize the programming languages are the crucial point in computer science education. Programming languages are used by the students to write the program. Any machine needs a program to behave artificially intelligent or to perform any specific task. Any computing device is a useless without these programs. As every program is written in some specific programming language. Researchers are putting efforts in devising new languages to meets the goals and requirements of the specific domain of the programs that is going to be written in that language. Every programming language has its own semantics, nuances, and syntax with its pros and cons. For the early stage programmers these language specific details including semantics and syntax are hard to memorize or to familiar with it. Teachers often witness that these language specific barriers e.g., tough and confusing syntax of the language give hard time to students. Students generally stuck in learning the syntax and unconsciously learning programming skills go in back ground. This paper is going to present a Context-Free Grammar of a new programming language for early stage programing learners. In this language the hard part of syntax is relaxed by bring it to something that is close to their day to day communication so that they concentrate on logic and not on syntax.

“…A unified DSL is designed to be implemented by the ten approaches to compare the DSL implementation effort and the end-user effort to build programs with the given DSL. Similar work is done by [10] to evaluate four DSL implementation approaches based on unified state machine DSL. It concludes that no single approach is valid for all scenarios.…”

Domain Specific Languages (DSLs) bridge the gap between the business model and the technical model. DSLs allow the technical developer to write programs with the business domain notations. This leads to higher productivity and better quality than General Purpose Languages (GPLs). One of the main challenges of utilizing DSLs in the current software process is how to reduce the implementation cost and the knowledge required for building and maintaining DSLs. Language workbenches are environments that provide high level tools for implementing different language aspects. The purpose of this paper is to provide a survey on the different aspects of implementing DSLs. The survey includes structure, editor, semantics, and composability language aspects. Furthermore, it overviews the approaches used for each aspect and classify the current workbenches according to these approaches.
