ALM Integration

Requirement Gathering through Prototyping

The prototypes you created in Serena Prototype Composer can be imported directly into Dimensions RM,where your prototypes become traceable requirements.

Requirements-Based Development

Dimensions RM and Dimensions CM share the same global repository--where you can track and manage requirements from initial request to deployment.

Requirements management is most effective when it is integrated into the rest of Application Lifecycle Managment (ALM) process, providing full traceability to ensure what you build is what customers want. Dimensions RM works with many popular application lifecycle tools straight out of the box, such as Dimensions CM and HP Quality Center.

In addition, Dimensions RM is web services enabled--making it easy to integrate with other applications.

Requirements-based Testing

Dimensions RM integrates with HP Quality Center through web services, associating test cases with requirements. This integration enables requirements-based testing, and aligns requirements and test cases prioritization.

Demand Management Integration

Once you prioritize IT requests with a demand management system, the approved projects and tasks can have their requirements defined and managed in Dimensions RM. You are able to see exactly what your development teams are working on.
