Abstract :
In this research we are exploring how to inject tracing directives into a UML model rendered as text in an extension to the Umple language we call Model-Oriented Tracing Language (MOTL). We have so far implemented tracing of UML/Umple attributes and state machines and conducted a pilot usability study of the language. In this paper we outline the work completed, the research questions we are addressing and the path forward.
