Key Features |
| Open flexible platform for collaboration |
IBM Rational Requirements Composer uses a collaborative wiki-like, platform to allow business and technology teams to work together in an online community for requirements. The single location allows users to view, comment, and query “in-context” any textual or graphical element, and to link to other resources on the internet or your intranet. Host review documents within a collaborative environment where users can comment on issues, and engage in discussion threads with other stakeholders and team-members, ensuring that everyone participates in the review and approval of requirements. |
| Richtext authoring |
Consolidate unstructured information (rich text, images, and link internal and external documents) with easy document creation. Embed artifacts (diagrams, sketches) to create concise and clear vision and specification documents. Using this editor, users capture the annotated information to support any project, business goal or requirement. |
| Organize and find requirements |
IBM Rational Requirements Composer has filters, tags, and searches to organize and find requirements and requirement artifacts. These features help improve productivity and increase reuse. |
| Business Process Diagrams |
Using a subset of BPM notation through a simple editor, users create, share and validate current and future state business processes.; including roles, rules, tasks, and decision points. Link business process diagram elements, tasks, and decision points to use cases, UI sketches, and requirements. Allow stakeholders to conceptualize how various inputs, outputs, and roles can work together to execute processes that create value for the business. |
| User Interface Sketching |
Simulate User Interfaces with wire frame models through a simple UI Sketching editor. Create mock-ups and workflow examples for web-based interactions that link any UI component to rich document descriptions and requirements. Visualize system transactions and interactions as the user would, identify user experience issues prior to costly web-development. |
| User Interface Storyboards |
Easily create and maintain storyboards as changes are propagated. Link any UI part to rich document descriptions and requirements. Quickly assemble storyboards by sequencing, reusing, and re-factoring sketches using reusable components to quickly gain consensus on flow and content. Elaborate the user experience to further elicit and validate requirements. |
| Use Case Models |
Create use case diagrams that capture system behavior. Elaborate use cases with rich document descriptions. Link use cases diagrams with use case specifications, user interfaces sketches, storyboards, process flows and requirements. |
| Dynamic Glossaries |
Support multiple glossaries to catalog definitions of commonly used terms. Includes support for: search, synonyms, and related terms. Promote consistency and clarity of communication across the organization, capture key concepts across all deliverables into a single repository that allows for quick searches, and alert users when terms they are typing or viewing are defined within the glossary. Link to glossary terms from anywhere there is text via content assistance tools. |
