Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / EA and Borland suite

« on: July 21, 2004, 10:58:23 pm »

Hi,

I have been following the discussion about Tool Evaluation and Integration. We recently had a presentation by Borland (Caliber RM for Requirements (Integrated with Test Director), Together(integrated with VS.NET),  OptimizeIt and StarTeam(for SCM).

Based on my experience and based on the forums, it seems some Requirements Management aspects are not handled very well in EA.

My question is

1) I would like to continue using EA instead of Together because of its excellent features and low price(We would need > 50 licenses). Has anybody used EA with tools from Borland (Caliber RM and StarTeam etc). Does the approach work for large teams? Or would it make more sense to stay with one vendor (the Borland suite / EA) across the lifecycle instead of integrating tools from different vendors ?

Thanks in Advance

Bruno,
I was happily using your tool when the requirements changed . Now I need to evaluate if data/logical models in EA can be migrated to ERWin !!! Is there a tool which can do that ? I was thinking of using XMI export and the ERWin All Fusion Component Modeler or XMI export / import to generate a Rose Model first( I think RR has an integration with ERWin).
Bruno/Other modeling Gurus, can you please advice !!!

Thanks !!

Automation Interface, Add-Ins and Tools / Re: Getting Use Case Links to Requirements

« on: February 19, 2004, 02:19:33 am »

We need to use the realization relationship between the various requirements, usecases and the classes for getting the Links. Is there any way we can automate this ? Alternately, can we do some tagging instead of the drag,drop approach suggested in the help ?
