Describe a typical CASE tool. Use the term repository in your answer. 

What will be an ideal response?


A typical CASE tool is actually a set of individual tools that share a repository of information. A repository is a database that serves as a central storage location for all information about the system being developed. Once a data element has been defined in the repository, it can be accessed and used by processes and other information systems. For example, sales processing, accounts receivable, and shipping systems all might require data about customers. After the CUSTOMER data element is entered in the repository, all three systems can share a consistent, up-to-date definition.
