Development of a CASE Platform with Generative Artificial Intelligence and an MCP Agent Layer
Abstract
This paper presents the architecture, implementation and preliminary service-level evaluation of a prototype CASE platform that uses generative artificial intelligence to support requirements structuring, code generation, test-artifact generation and deployment checks. The platform combines an adapter-based LLM integration layer, versioned artifact storage, explicit human approval checkpoints and a bidirectional Model Context Protocol (MCP) layer for tool-oriented integration. The work is positioned against recent research on LLM-based software engineering, test generation, software agents and tool-augmented language models. The evaluation is intentionally limited and does not claim productivity gains or industrial readiness. It uses five web-application scenarios executed in deterministic mode, six success criteria, backend regression tests, a workflow-property comparison with two baselines and an additional exploratory check with a real commercial LLM provider on two project prompts. The results provide preliminary evidence that the prototype can execute a traceable requirements-to-artifacts workflow, generate structurally valid deployment bundles and preserve run metadata. The evaluation does not measure semantic correctness of generated business logic and should be extended with repeated real-provider experiments, larger benchmarks and controlled user studies.
