Rapid Prototyping

CA Gen lets you rapidly build a prototype of the application for users to review.

CA Gen's Design Toolset provides window design functionality that uses definitions of views as a source of the data to be presented. If you retain these views, they can be promoted to data views after the GUI design is complete.

The data model does not have to be completely defined to design or prototype the user interface. If you wish to prototype flows as an aid to developing data and view definitions, you do not need to begin with prototypes produced using word processing or graphic tools. The CA Gen GUI designs can be arranged completely with or without the complete data model.
