With the Rational RequisitePro integration,
you can enhance your models by associating domain elements and RequisitePro requirements.
With this integration, you can extend your requirements and domain elements
with the following capabilities:
- Associate requirements with domain elements quickly by dragging artifacts
between views.
- Create, view and navigate to associated artifacts within various domains.
- Manage your domain elements with attributes, such as priority and status,
in RequisitePro.
- Establish traceability to requirements to indicate dependencies and ensure
that your design satisfies your project requirements.
- Monitor the impact of change within your project.
- Develop use cases in RequisitePro and
then model them, showing the interaction with actors and other use cases and
domain elements.
- Change the name and text of a domain element in either tool and synchronize
the domain elements based on rules, which you can configure.
Requirement documents
You can use Microsoft® Word
documents within RequisitePro to
develop an extensive textual definition of your requirements. This is particularly
helpful for elaborating associated use cases with descriptions, flows of
events, special requirements, and conditions. You can navigate directly to
requirement documents from within the IBM Rational modeling products.
Package associations
In addition to associations
between requirements and domain elements, you can also associate a requirement
with a package. This is helpful for relating groups of model elements with
a specific requirement.
