IBM DOORS Requirements Management - Proven, scalable, robust

IBM Rational DOORS is a requirements management tool for systems and advanced IT applications. It is a requirements management application for optimizing requirements communication, collaboration and verification throughout your organization and supply chain. This scalable solution can help you meet business goals by managing project scope and cost. Rational DOORS requirements management tool lets you capture, trace, analyze and manage changes to information while maintaining compliance to regulations and standards

Rational DOORS provides:

  • IBM DOORS Requirements Management in a centralized location for better team collaboration.
  • Traceability by linking requirements to design items, test plans, test cases and other requirements.
  • Scalability to address your changing requirements management needs.
  • Test Tracking Toolkit for manual test environments to link requirements to test cases.
  • Integrations to help manage changes to requirements with either a simple pre-defined change proposal system or a more thorough, customizable change control workflow with Rational change management solutions.

Features of IBM Rational DOORS

IBM DOORS Requirements management tool in a centralized location

IBM Rational DOORS requirements management tool lets you manage requirements documents centrally for better collaboration. It provides access to editing, configuration, analysis and reporting capabilities through a desktop client. Additionally, it supports the Requirements Interchange Format, enabling suppliers and development partners to contribute requirements documents, sections or attributes that can be traced back to central requirements. Plus it records and displays requirements text, graphics, tables and more.

Test tracking toolkit and add-on

IBM Rational DOORS includes a test tracking toolkit that enables you to create links from requirements to test cases. You can define test cases, records and compare test runs. The solution ensures that all requirements are covered by test cases. The Engineering DOORS Web Access add-on provides greater functionality by offering web-based access for creating, reviewing, editing and discussing requirements held in an IBM Engineering DOORS database.

Traceability that links requirements to design items

The solution provides a drag-and-drop capability that links a requirement to a design item, a test case or another requirement. Pick requirements from a list or enter requirement numbers as attributes, and Rational  DOORS will create the links for you. It offers full traceability reports in a single view to help prioritize development work and predict delivery schedule. Plus it supports external links that enable requirements to be directly associated with information outside of Engineering DOORS.

Integrations to help manage requirements changes

The solution helps you manage changes to requirements with either a simple pre-defined change proposal system or a more thorough, customizable change control workflow with Rational change management solutions, including IBM Engineering Test Management, IBM Engineering Rhapsody. It also integrates with Micro Focus (HP) QualityCenter for visibility of requirements to create test cases for traceability and with Microsoft Team Foundation Server (TFS) to create and maintain traceability.

Scalability to address your requirements management needs

Engineering DOORS offers an explorer-like hierarchy with multiple levels of folders and projects for simple navigation no matter how large the database grows. It includes configurable views and sharable documents, which enable users to work concurrently to produce a single document. The solution can scale as the project demands from small teams to complex, global projects.

Use the latest Rational DOORS solution to improve projects

IBM Engineering DOORS Next provides a scalable solution to optimize communication, collaboration and verification of requirements throughout your organization and supply chain—and improve management of project scope and cost. It uses the IBM Jazz™ Engineering Lifecycle Management platform to help you capture, trace, analyze and manage changes to requirements while maintaining compliance to regulations and standards. This solution is available on premises and in the cloud.

Extending Rational DOORS with DXL

DXL (DOORS eXtension Language) is a scripting language specially developed for Rational DOORS. DXL is used in many parts of Rational DOORS to provide key features, such as file format importers and exporters, impact and traceability analysis and inter-module linking tools. This capability of extending Rational DOORS with DXL is available to users who choose to develop their own DXL scripts. DXL can also be used to develop larger add-on packages such as CASE tool interfaces and project management tools. To the end user, DXL developed applications appear as seamless extensions to the graphical user interface. Extending Rational DOORS with DXL is for the more technical user, who sets up programs for the end-user to apply.

DXL takes many of its fundamental features from C and C++. Anyone who has written programs in these or similar programming languages should be able to use DXL.
