ReqIF

Description

RIF/ReqIF (Requirements Interchange Format) is an XML file format that can be used to exchange requirements, along with its associated metadata, between software tools from different vendors.

For more details, refer to http://www.omg.org/spec/ReqIF/.

Usage

ReqIF has the following options:

  • ReqIF file (file) Specify the path to the XML ReqIF file. Note that the XML file will be validated using the schema available from http://www.omg.org/spec/ReqIF/20110401/reqif.xsd.

  • Spec Object Type (objType, default: _AUTO_) Specify the SPEC_OBJECT_TYPE property LONG-NAME to be used to process the ReqIf file. Using the _AUTO_ value will let the Data Provider extract the value fro the ReqIf file, and assumes that there is only one such definition.

The full command line syntax for ReqIF is:

-d "type=ReqIf,file=[text],objType=[text]"
