A declarative Language for Rapid Business Development
This work addresses the need for efficient domain-specific languages in software testing and business automation, though it appears incremental by building on existing DSL concepts.
The paper introduces ZoomBA, a declarative language designed to tackle business automation problems by enabling rapid system integration and software validation, resulting in significantly smaller script sizes compared to Python or Scala.
The motivation for ZoomBA are domain specific languages (DSL) like VERILOG, VHDL, Spice. DSL for Software testing is not a new idea, many commercial tools like Silk Suite use them, while Selenese, the DSL for Selenium IDE [6] is open source. ZoomBA is a functionally motivated, embeddable, Turing Complete language. It's philosophy is to expose the existing Java echo system in a declarative fashion for the purpose of System Integration and software validation. By design ZoomBA script size is meagre compared to Python or even to Scala for business automation problems. Bayestree uses ZoomBA for system integration/adapter/data manipulation purposes.
