Integrating DOORS and Rational Quality Manager
You can configure IBM® Engineering Requirements
Management DOORS®
(DOORS)
and Rational® Quality
Manager to integrate with one another by using Open Services for Lifecycle Collaboration (OSLC), an open
standard that IBM is developing
in cooperation with business partners and customers. You can use DOORS to
manage your requirements, and you can use Rational Quality
Manager to manage
test plans and test cases that validate the requirements.
Note: This topic applies to DOORS
version 9.4 and later. For information about integration IBM
Rational Quality Manager with
DOORS
version 9.3 and earlier, see Rational DOORS for Rational Quality Manager Interface (DOORS 9.3) in the
DOORS
documentation for versions 9.3 and 9.4.
To enable communication between the applications, you must add the Rational Quality Manager server to the remote services list in DOORS, and add the DOORS in a "friend" relationship on the Rational Quality Manager server.
Note: To perform this task, you must have database manager privileges or custom user permissions to
manage the database in DOORS.
You must also have Jazz Administrator privileges on the Rational Quality
Manager
server.
