Dynamic project planning for software development projects

One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media storing instructions that when executed by one or more computers cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:

• obtaining, at one or more processing devices, data indicative of initial project plan parameters associated with a software development project;
• identifying, by the one or more processing devices, based on specifications associated with the software development project, multiple program modules associated with the software development project;
• obtaining, for a first set of modules of the multiple modules, corresponding source code segments, wherein the corresponding source code segments are obtained either by executing a search process on one or more source code repositories, or generated at least in part using an automated code generator;
• executing, by the one or more processing devices, a quality assessment process to compute, for each corresponding source code segment, a corresponding quality score, wherein executing the quality assessment process comprises:
• executing multiple pre-defined test cases using the corresponding source code segment, and
• assigning the corresponding quality score based on outcomes of the multiple pre-defined test cases;
• identifying, by the one or more processing devices based on the quality scores, that at least a subset of the corresponding source code segments are integrable into a corresponding first subset of the first set of modules;
• generating, by the one or more processing devices, a revised project plan by generating updates to the initial project plan parameters by accounting for the corresponding source code segments being integrated in to corresponding ones of the first set of modules;
• executing, by the one or more processing devices, additional actions based on the revised project plan, wherein the additional actions include disabling access to the one or more source code repositories and the automated code generator during subsequent implementation of tasks associated with the revised project plan, in response to determining that an estimated cost associated with the revised project plan is close to within a threshold level from a target cost of the software development project;
• assigning, by the one or more processing devices based on the quality scores, at least a second subset of the first set of modules for a manual coding process;
• receiving, by the one or more processing devices, information indicating that source code segments corresponding to at least a portion of the second subset are available;
• and
• updating, by the one or more processing devices, the revised project plan based at least on the information indicating that the source code segments corresponding to at least the portion of the second subset are available.
