When we incorprated Swat.engineering early 2017, we quickly registered the domain swat.engineering and put there some temporary information. Little did we know that “temporary” would mean 3 years.

We needed all our time to run a start up.

A few month ago a colleague in an EU project said: “Hey, Swat.engineering must be doing pretty well, since your website is never updated”. Indeed, we are doing very well as a company working on exciting projects with a range of clients.

So time for a new website. With an increasing team and increasing ambitions we want to clearly communicate our technical expertise and what kind of services we can deliver to our clients.

We asked Kitty Molenaar to create a good looking web site that conveys the professional values we stand for. We think she did a great job. The technical realization of Kitty’s design was done by Bas Vredeling from Code Culture. All content was produced by the Swat.engineering team.

We hope that this website will help you to identify how we can help you to control your software. Or just ask us how we can help you.

We love to hear from you at [email protected].

Any substantial change to critical software should be backed by a high confidence in correctness. Testing can be difficult when working with existing software systems.

During the reverse-engineering of legacy systems, in particular, correctness can be challenging to define and components might interact in non-obvious ways. Therefore, simply “writing tests” is not as simple as it sounds.

Many other IDEs have it, too, and for many other languages. It’s a very useful feature. So… Should IDEs for DSLs have Go to Definition as well?
