Review of iTrace

iTrace is a plugin for an Eye-Enabled IDE, more precisely for the Eclipse IDE. It enables us to do eye tracking on software artifacts within the IDE to support further software engineering tasks. iTrace works by implicitly recording developers' eye-movements while the work on change tasks. Supports a variety of eye trackers. Eye-movements can be recorded on various types of software artifacts, like for example Java code, text/html/xml documents, some diagrams, as well as IDE user interface elements.

The purpose of iTrace is to help in code summarization, software tracebility, program comprehension tasks and code recommendations based on the developers' gaze.
