Info

API Changes New methods are provided for the following actions: • Managing licenses though the SDK • Obtaining a checkpoint to view changes since a previous checkpoint URL Addressability URL addressability allows you to create a URL for any given requirement. Navigation of the URL requires the user to have installed the CaliberRM Client. The URL does not follow the traditional HTTP style because the target is directed to the CaliberRM application. The URL can be pasted into a browser or the Windows Run dialog box for execution. Users must log on if they are not already logged on to the target project. Filter Mechanism on Grid The same filter mechanism that was added to the Traceability Matrix in v2006 is now available on the Requirements Grid, allowing you to build more complex filters and save those filters for reuse. Unlike filters in version 2006, filters in the current version are saved on the server side. Consequently, performance is improved due to less data being sent across the network to the client. Saving filters on a user's computer saves the column layout in an RGV file. Filter Criteria in Grid and Matrix Baseline filter criteria has been added to the Traceability Matrix and to the Requirements Grid. Hierarchies and the most recently modified information exist only as views. Filtering capability is not available for these fields. Status Add-In Added to Datamart The status attribute of items that are traced to CaliberRM by way of the traceability add-in are now included in the Datamart extract. Users can include them in reports. For example, the status of a test case linked to Quality Center is now available in the Datamart extract. Visual Improvement to Baseline Maintenance Window Requirements can be deleted from the current baseline (but not from a selected baseline) yet remain available because they are part of another baseline. In the Baseline Maintenance window, a visual clue differentiates requirements that are deleted from requirements that simply do not appear in the selected baseline. Requirements can be identified by their fonts and colors, as follows: • Requirements in the selected baseline appear in bold • Requirements in the current baseline but not in the selected baseline appear in normal font • Requirements that do not reside in either the current or selected baseline are teal in color 6 | CaliberRM 2008 Release Notes
Help Content Because of a major documentation conversion that was underway during the 2006 release, that version did not contain all of the Help topics that were available in previous releases. The 2008 release completes the conversion and includes the missing topics that are relevant to v2008.
