Importer for IBM Rational DOORS Released

9-Jan-2012 by Adam Sandman Product News

We are pleased to announce the release of a new importer for IBM Rational DOORS. This importer will allow business analysts and requirements engineers to manage their requirements inside DOORS and have the data seamlessly synchronize with SpiraTest, SpiraPlan or SpiraTeam. This integration allows you to have integrated requirements test coverage across your organization. In addition when used with SpiraPlan or SpiraTeam, it bridges the gap between requirements engineering and project management.

The new importer allows you to import and synchronize folders, projects, modules and requirements from an IBM Rational DOORS database into a project in SpiraTest®, SpiraPlan® or SpiraTeam®. For more information please refer to the SpiraTeam Requirements Management Integration Guide
