FeatureMapper: Mapping Features to Models

Variability modeling with feature models is one key technique for specifying the problem space of Software Product Lines (SPLs). To allow for the automatic derivation of a concrete product based on a given variant configuration, a mapping between features in the problem space and their realisations in the solution space is required. It is crucial to support the developer in the complex task of defining such mappings. These mappings can also be used to provide visualisations of the variant space that allow to reason over variability in SPLs. In this paper the authors present FeatureMapper, a tool that allows for defining mappings of features to model elements specifying feature realisations.
