Managing requirements
Use the capabilities that are described in this section to manage
requirements.
- Standard links, external links, and collaboration links
Use links to associate requirements with other requirements in IBM® Rational® DOORS®, and with resources outside of Rational DOORS. - Link modules, linksets, and linkset pairings
Link modules store information about standard Rational DOORS links. Within each link module, the information is subdivided into linksets. Each linkset contains information about the links from one particular module to another. External links are not stored in link modules. - Automatic link discovery
When you configure Rational DOORS to use OSLC to integrate with a remote server, and Rational DOORS uses link discovery to determine whether there are links to the remote server, you can determine whether link discovery is performed automatically or decided by individual users. - Links and traceability
Links give you traceability, so you can check that what you are building satisfies your user requirements. Links also allow you to manage change. You can quickly find out what impact a change has on your project. - Tracking changes to Rational DOORS data
Use history records and links to track changes to data, and manage the impact that changes have to other items in the database. - Baselines
- Baseline set definitions and baseline sets
- Electronic signatures
- The change proposal system
