Learn how to configure the product to integrate with your reporting, design, quality,
change, and configuration management solutions.
Integrating Rational DOORS and Rational Team Concert
You can configure Rational®
DOORS® and IBM®
Rational Team Concert™ to integrate with one
another by using Open Services Lifecycle Collaboration (OSLC), which is a set of specifications for
linking and viewing artifacts across the software development lifecycle. You can use Rational
DOORS to manage your requirements, and you can use the Rational Team Concert work items capability to
place those requirements under change control.
Integrating Rational DOORS and Rational Quality Manager
You can configure Rational DOORS and Rational Quality Manager to
integrate with one another by using Open Services Lifecycle Collaboration
(OSLC), an open standard that IBM is
developing in cooperation with business partners and customers. You
can use Rational DOORS to
manage your requirements, and you can use Rational Quality Manager to
manage test plans and test cases that validate the requirements.
Integrating Rational DOORS and Design Management
You can configure IBM Rational DOORS to integrate with IBM Rational Rhapsody® Design Manager and
the design management capabilities in IBM Rational Software Architect
by using Open Services for Lifecycle Collaboration (OSLC) linking.
Integrating Rational DOORS and Rational Change
You can use the IBM
Rational
DOORS integration with IBM
Rational Change to track the implementation of
requirements by linking them with change requests and tasks in Rational Change. You can configure
this integration by using Open Services Lifecycle Collaboration (OSLC).
Integrating Rational DOORS and Rational Insight
You can use the capabilities of IBM Rational Insight to
report IBM Rational DOORS data.
You must configure an XML data configuration file, an ODBC data source,
and the IBM Cognos® Data Manager catalog to implement the
reporting integration.
Configuring Rational DOORS data for external applications
You can use the working set, attribute and link type mapping, and the reportable shape to configure IBM Rational DOORS data for integration with external applications. These applications include Rational Engineering Lifecycle Management, Rational Insight, and applications that are integrated with IBM Rational DOORS by using OSLC.
Tracking changes by using TRS and LQE
You can use tracked resource sets (TRS) and the Lifecycle Query Engine (LQE) to track
changes to resources in IBM
Rational
DOORS from lifecycle applications, such as IBM
Rational Engineering Lifecycle
Manager.
Configuring integrations by using OSLC
You can integrate data in lifecycle applications, such as change management, quality
management, design management, and other requirements management applications with requirements
data in Rational
DOORS and Rational
DOORS Web Access. Integration is implemented by using Open
Services for Lifecycle Collaboration (OSLC) data sharing. After the configuration is complete, you
can create traceability relationships between your requirements and other lifecycle application
artifacts.
