The impact of South African automotive policy changes on the domestic leather industryKhan, Faizal 11 1900 (has links)
The South African leather industry has undergone a significant transformation since
the 1990’s and this can be attributed primarily owing to two major factors that
occurred. The first being trade liberalisation, which meant the fall of trade barriers,
and the second being the Motor Industry Development Programme (MIDP), which
was implemented in South Africa on 1 September 1995. The MIDP was implemented
in the context of the country’s political and economic liberalisation, and the major
structural shift in government policy and the trade regime.
South Africa became much more globally integrated and the South African leather
industry benefited because of this, as well as the incentives that was offered under
the MIDP. Automotive exports of stitched leather seat parts responded positively to
the incentives offered under the MIDP and stitched leather seat parts, as a
component under the MIDP, became one of the best performing components being
exported from South Africa.
The MIDP had been terminated at the end of 2012 and is now being followed by
government’s latest rendition of automotive policy, namely the Automotive
Production and Development Programme (APDP). The APDP focuses on value
addition, which pursues beneficiation of the country’s raw materials to the final
stages, to ensure maximum benefit to the South African economy. The findings of
the study entail that the South African leather industry is now in a vulnerable state
because of the new automotive policy. This is mainly because the APDP does not
provide the same level, or type, of incentives that the MIDP had provided to the
industry. / Business Management / M. Com. (Business Management)

Enabling Java Software Developers to use ATCG tools by demonstrating the tools that exist today, their usefulness, and effectivenessQAZIZADA, RASHED January 2021 (has links)
The software industry is expanding at a rapid rate. To keep up with the fast-growing and ever-changing technologies, it has become necessary to produce high-quality software in a short time and at an affordable cost. This research aims to demonstrate to Java developers the use of Automated Test Case Generation (ATCG) tools by presenting the tools that exist today, their usefulness, and their effectiveness. The main focus is on the automated testing tools for the Java industry, which can help developers achieve their goals faster and make better software. Moreover, the discussion covers the availability, features, prerequisites, effectiveness, and limitations of the automated testing tools. Among these tools, the most widely used are Evosuite, JUnit, TestNG, and Selenium. Each tool has its advantages and purpose. Furthermore, these ATCG-tools were compared to provide a clear picture to Java developers, answer the research questions, and show strengths and limitations of each selected tool. Results show that there is no single ultimate tool that can do all kinds of testing independently. It all depends on what the developer aims to achieve. If one tool is good at generating unit test cases for Java classes, another tool is good at testing the code security through penetration testing. Therefore, the Java developers may choose a tool/s based on their requirements. This study has revealed captivating findings regarding the ATCG-tools, which ought to be explored in the future.
