Abstract

The World Wide Web (WWW) technology has been widely accepted and used to build different application systems on the Internet and/or Intranet due to its advantages in networking, platform independence, distributed accesses for multiple users at different locations. We believe that this new technology is a powerful and cost effective tool to build a next generation environment for supporting software engineering practice in a software product´s life cycle. The paper reports our experience on developing a Web based testing information sharing, control and management system using WWW technology. The paper also discusses its approach, basic function features, related design and implementation mechanisms. In addition, it reports the first hand useful experience and lessons in developing Web based software engineering support systems
