The tools are examined under the following headings:
| Underlying Tools |
Operating systems, browsers, office suites |
| Project Tools |
Requirements management, work item tracking, source code control, team productivity, build management, continuous integration |
| Developer Tools |
Modeling, design patterns, developing and debugging code, code analysis , refactoring, web-tier development tools, data-tier development tools, XML tools, web service tools, workflow/BPM |
| Testing Tools |
Unit test generation, mock generation, unit test coverage |

A huge range of open source tools are available. An increasingly common occurrence is for such tools to be available for use with the eclipse platform (often as a plugin).
The slides look at available tools, desired features and make comparisons with commercial offerings.
