Component-based software engineering (CBSE), also called component-based development (CBD), is a style of software engineering that aims to construct a software system from components that are loosely-coupled and reusable. This emphasizes the separation of concerns among components.[1][2][3]
Development edit

The system can be designed visually with the Unified Modeling Language (UML). Each component is shown as a rectangle, and an interface is shown as a lollipop to indicate a provided interface and as a socket to indicate consumption of an interface.
A component framework can be used to build components.[4][5] Notable examples are Enterprise JavaBeans, the Component Object Model, the .NET Framework, and CORBA.
Third-party components are often utilized in large systems.
Component-based usability testing is for components that interact with the end user.
