Years ago I looked into developing an app. Initially I thought of it as an app to create and manage specifications.
There are some real benefits to this:
[] As apposed to a printed spec, it's always up to date.
[] Both customer requirements and functional spec could be created.
[] A change in a customer requirement automatically updates the functional spec.
[] A change in a customer requirement automatically identifies areas of the app that would be effected.
[] Both specs could be automatically integrated with scrum or other planning tools.
[] Other features such as task management could be included and linked directly to spec requirement items
[] Test plans and code snippets could automatically be generated.
I've researched Project Management software and what there is no shortage of is scrum/agile tools. I'm thinking that this app would be bigger than that.
Consider a tool that initially has a tree like interface where each feature is a node and sub-nodes are subtasks. It could be broken down as far as needed.
If smart enough it could produce a Requirements doc for the customer to sign, development/functional documents, test plans, docs, and Test methods directly in the code.
I've got this grand idea in my head, and I've only listed some of it here. The ultimate goal would be to streamline the development process from start to finish.
What do you guys think? Any value in this?

Sorry, not a pun as the career change thread before, but I'm thinking about redirecting my career and try to start teaching at a college level. I've been developing for a number of years and am thinking a change might be in order. Does anyone have experience with this type of shift? Good or bad?

Depends on what you expect, and what you want. The things I consider bad might be positive points in your book.
I was totally unprepared for a group of people who would write down what I said word for word, and recite it literally; but yes, it was fun.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

That's normal. Guess what it's like when you are not much more than 19 years old and are ordered to 'lead' a platoon of soldiers someplace. Loud and clear commands, please.

I don't know what the situation in the US is, but in the UK you would almost certainly need a education degree and a pretty clean police record (to pass the CRB check to work with children).
In the US, I'd suspect that a liking for wearing bullet-proof fabrics would be an advantage, judging by the news...

In the UK they'll actually train you, especially if your degree is STEM related, and sometimes even offer bursaries if you want to teach in Math, Chemistry, or Computing. This is for secondary though, not university level. It's something I've been looking into myself.

I ran the Computer Science department at Coleman University for two years. It was a very enjoyable experience. You certainly learn a lot, and there's a lot of enjoyment in seeing student's eyes open when the learn something new.
Having said that, be prepared for the sticker shock. Teaching generally does not pay very well.
