• Predictable & Repeatable
Plan an enterprise COBOL-to-Java or COBOL-to-C# migration with guidance on application assessment, conversion, testing, data migration, costs and project risk.
This video explains the principal activities involved in converting an enterprise COBOL application into maintainable Java or C#. It covers application assessment, automated translation, data migration, functional-equivalence testing, project costs and the conversion of online screens.
SoftwareMining is a specialist COBOL-to-Java and COBOL-to-C# conversion company and technology vendor with experience across enterprise modernization projects . We have found that customers benefit from retaining control of application analysis, conversion, testing and deployment. The SoftwareMining Conversion Tool operates within the client's own infrastructure, keeping source code and business data under client control.
A central part of this client-controlled process is functional-equivalence testing. The original COBOL application provides the behavioural baseline, with representative data processed by both systems so that files, reports, database updates, return codes and online transaction results can be compared before production deployment.
The presentation compares automated COBOL-to-Java and COBOL-to-C# conversion with manual rewriting, explains why functional-equivalence testing is a major project activity and shows how data migration and online screen conversion fit into the wider modernization plan.
