You can configure and use the Rational solution for Collaborative
Lifecycle Management (CLM) integrations with Rational ClearQuest to
connect the work of all team members. The Rational solution for CLM
integrations, which are based on Jazz technology and the open architecture
of Open Services for Lifecycle Collaboration (OSLC), include IBM Rational
Team Concert, IBM Rational Quality Manager, and IBM Rational DOORS
Next Generation. Collaborative Lifecycle Management integrations with
Rational ClearQuest Web are also referred to as the Rational ClearQuest
Bridge.
Collaborative Lifecycle Management integrations provide a common
approach to artifact linking, dashboards, security, and user interface
frameworks. Cross-product links support traceability, web-like navigation,
commenting, and status tracking across project repositories.
Collaborative Lifecycle Management integrations provide the following
capabilities:
- Link to existing artifacts across repositories in integrated products;
for example, ClearQuest® records
are linked to work items, test cases, and requirements.
- Hover-over links to quickly check that status of associated work;
for example testers can monitor the status of a defect that they reported
to the development team.
- Add a widget to a dashboard to report query results from associated
projects; for example, you can display requirements that have not
been assigned test plans.
- Add comments to any artifact in an integrated repository.
