Requirements in AyMINE

Link Management and Traceability

AyMINE allows you to manage links between requirements, particularly maintaining "traceability"—tracking which requirements derive from others. It ensures logical and correct use while guiding users to properly derive requirements, avoiding errors such as creating cyclic dependencies.

Link tracking also applies to tests. The system fulfills the obligation to track which requirements have been tested and verify when the tests were conducted.

Configuration Management

Requirements can be included in configuration bundles and locked within them. Locked requirements remain fully linked to others but are protected from changes and edits.

Change Management and Versioning

Requirements can be edited until they are locked. Typically, locking occurs by locking the bundle, but individual requirements can also be locked.

If a locked requirement needs to be modified, a new version can be created. The old and new versions are automatically linked, and the new version can "inherit" all links from the original requirement.

Managing Special Symbols

If special symbols are associated with a requirement, such as safety or legal requirements, these symbols are consistently displayed and automatically inherited by related requirements.

Typical symbols include safety requirements, cybersecurity needs, or legal obligations. These symbols are configured by companies based on their needs.

Essential Requirement Modeling Features

Sharing, Commenting, and Discussion

Each requirement can include a discussion, allowing collaborative refinement, feedback, and editing. Discussions are saved with the requirement for easy future reference.

Task Management

Tasks can be created for requirements to assign responsibilities for processing, solution preparation, verification, or other activities.

Tasks can involve multiple contributors, visible on mobile phones, MS Outlook, or other calendars (accessible via CalDAV).

Enterprise Architect Integration

AyMINE enables bidirectional synchronization with Enterprise Architect (a modeling tool by Sparxsystems), including all links. Requirements processed in AyMINE can be synchronized into the Enterprise Architect model.

Multilingual Requirements

Requirements can be documented in multiple languages, enabling collaboration between international teams or for projects with foreign clients. Users can request translations within the system.
