Requirement Types
In a Requirement definition, the requirement is categorized according to type or function, in the Type field of the Requirement properties dialog. This helps to maintain a single set of typed requirements. You can select the appropriate Type value from a drop-down list, which initially contains the system values:
• | Display |
• | Functional |
• | Performance |
• | Printing |
• | Report |
• | Testing and |
• | Validate |
You can add to or replace any of these types with your own customized values.
