A method and system for summarizing object interactions in an object-oriented software program is disclosed. A plurality of tabular inputs containing information about the object interactions in a software system are input into a computer system. The system then determines object information and interaction information from the input information and generates an object summary from the object information and interaction information. The object summary may comprise an object summary matrix indicating instances of interaction between the objects of the software program and a plurality of message summaries that indicate messages sent from and sent to a particular object of the software program.

A system and method for facilitating tracking of issues utilize a series of graphical user interfaces (GUIs). A first GUI has a first plurality of information accepting fields operable to accept information defining the issue from an originator of the issue. In response to entry of said information defining the issue, the information is sent to an assigned party. The assigned party then uses a second GUI including a second plurality of information accepting fields to enter information related to a proposed resolution of the issue. The information related to a proposed resolution of the issue is then forwarded back to the originator to make a determination of whether the proposed resolution is satisfactory.
