Open Source Python Documentation Software

SLOCCount is an easy-to-use tool that counts Source Lines of Code (SLOC). It auto-determines the language(s) (inc. C, C++, Ada, Assembly, shell, COBOL, C#, Fortran, Haskell, Java, LISP/Scheme, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, SQL). It also estimates cost & time.

AFMS is an Artefact Management System to manage some of the artefacts appearing in the development process of a product. Artefacts are for example requirements, use cases or test cases. AFMS contains an artefact editor and a test execution tool.

Doceval is a software that allows to discover the documentation included in a tarball. Basically it serves to identify if a given software project has doc at all and helps with a report to evaluate how much documentation it has and how good it is.

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.

Gathering requirements should be fun. It's the brainstorming process refined. It shouldn't get in the way of productivity or creativity. Harvest is about gathering requirements in the most intuitive, least intrusive way possible.

Lightweight requirements management tool, with export, search and traceability functions. Uses plain text files as backend.

Professional environments focus on high development standards in Source Code Management. E.g. by usage of server side commit hooks to check for minimum acceptance levels on code and documentation quality including commit message structure and content. TortoiseSVN offers only a free form text field to edit inside the Commit Dialog. Developers might recall situations when struggling with commit message structure and fighting the server side commit hooks instead of focusing on message content! Thus being annoyed instead of feeling an incentive to deliver high quality descriptions here. The SVNStartCommitHelper is a client side start commit hook script (as a first version written in Python / Tkinter) exactly offering a well-structured form to fill in. The edited content is transformed and forwarded to the SVN commit dialog then. You still have full control on the commit message then. While using the helper you focus on message quality now instead struggling with message structure.
