Eclipse QSOS

Eclipse QSOS (Qualification and Selection of Open Source Software) is both a methodology and a collaborative tool that allows users to define, evaluate, qualify and compare open source software based on the specific needs and constraints of a company, organization, project or individual.

The scope of this project includes:

The documentation describing the QSOS Methodology
The web application and central repository allowing to put into practice that methodology

The web application has the following features:

Defining types of software
Referencing all types of licenses
Referencing software and their different versions
Defining versioned evaluation grids
Evaluating software maturity based on predefined generic criteria
Defining domain-specific evaluation criteria (evaluation grids)
Evaluating open-source software
Defining user-specific requirement presets in the form of weightings for evaluation grid criteria
Comparing different software or versions of software according to a specific evaluation grid and requirement presets
Display a comparison table and some visualization charts
Importing legacy QSOS files
Exporting comparisons as PDF
