Update: The information shown here is outdated. The current state of team support is described in the fmStudio Handbook. We are working on commercial team support. If this is of interest to you, then please let us know, so that we can inform you when it is available. Recently we published ReqIF-comparing as the first…
Merge Conflicts In a team setting, there is always the risk of a merge conflict. Without a conflicht, the Team plug-in automatically merges changes upon update. But if a conflict occurs, the user has to intervene. While the commit will still be triggered, the user will receive a message that committing is not possible, unless…
We are happy to announce that we will be present at the conference FORMS/FORMAT in Braunschweig, both with a paper (and presentation) and a tool exhibition. The paper is entitled “A Systems Engineering Tool Chain Based on Eclipse and Rodin”. We’d be delighted to see you there. Would you like to get regular updates…
We just released ProR Essentials 0.5.0, which comes with a new feature, an extension for comparing ReqIF files. We also published ProR 0.5.0, which is required for using the new Essentials features. Installing, not upgrading A lot of refactoring happened for the new ProR release. Therefore, unfortunately it is not possible to upgrade from 0.4.0…
Automated test are great (we use them – the RMF project currently runs over 200 automated tests, all passing). But there are some situations where automating tests is just not worth the while – GUI tests are one example. So the manual tests and their results have to be recorded somewhere. An obvious, quick approach…
The RMF team is proud to announce the availability of ProR 0.4.0. You can download it from the Eclipse RMF Download page. We hope that you will take the time to check it out. This build fixes 21 Bugs and Feature Requests, including: Better Performance – a cache has been implemented to make the Specification…
The ReqIF standard supports rich text, as do most professional requirements tools. ProR, so far, did not support it. Currently, ProR takes advantage of the “simplified” flag in ReqIF which allows tools to indicate that they don’t support rich text. This was a temporary workaround, but obviously real rich text support is crucial for ProR…
During the last couple of years, agile methods were experiences a renaissance in systems development. Organizations started to adapt their processes, and this included requirements engineering. It’s actually tragic that at some point, agile development and requirements management were considered mutually exclusive. This is certainly not the case, and common sense suggests that a…
The RMF team is delighted to announce the 0.3.0 release of RMF and ProR. If you currently use an older version, please be sure to update. Please note that there is a separate update site for 0.3.0, so you won’t get the update automatically. You can download ProR here. We believe that ProR now reached…
While requirements engineering in itself is already useful, integrating it with other elements from the system development process can increase its value significantly. We already hinted at this in our scientific work with respect to traceability, or our thoughts of an integration with Topcased. Our latest ideas were just submitted for publication. Picture a scenario…
