Roadmap

Traceability and Change Management

Status: In Progress
Planned Release:
 End of 2016
Premium Content Binom, Deduct

Traceability is one of the most powerful analysis tools for working with requirements. ReqIF Studio already has some features (i.e. suspect links), but we will systematically expand capabilities.

  • Produce videos
  • Statistics

Filtering

Status: In Progress
Planned Release:
 Q2 2017
Premium Content No

ReqIF Studio already has the ability to search, either by using the quick-search feature in the toolbar, or by using the search function.

However, it would be useful to persist searches and to apply them in various situations. The goal of this item is:

  • Save searches as Filters by giving them names

  • Apply a Filter to a specification to show only those elements that match the filter criteria.
  • Apply a Filter to an Axiom export to export only the matching elements.

Usability

Status: In Progress
Planned Release:
 Q2 2017
Premium Content No

As far as usability goes, there is always room for improvement. While ReqIF Studio is designed to be powerful and intuitive, while still allowing to see the original ReqIF structure, there are some features that would make day-to-day work easier.

  • Usage information that shows when an empty Specification editor is open.

  • Better XHTML Editor
  • Keyboard-friendly mechanism for switching between ReqIF.ChapterName and ReqIF.Text

Teamwork Support

Status: In Progress
Planned Release:
 TBD
Premium Content TBD

It is already possible to combine ReqIF Studio with versioning tools like Subversion, Git and the like. However, the integration is not very smooth. The goal of this item is:

  • Prevent unnecessary conflicts (i.e. due to modified dates)
  • Automatically add new files to version control
  • Auto-Commit on Save
  • Integration of Binom

Document Generation

Status: Planned
Planned Release:
 TBD
Premium Content Yes

Generation of documentation is currently only possible as HTML (via File | Print). This is barely enough for serious work.

The goal of this item is:

  • Provide a framework for document generation, either as Word or PDF
