Creating Traceability Links in Rhapsody

This guide provides instructions for creating traceability links in Rhapsody.

At this stage, the Requirements have been created in Rhapsody.
You can now associate Requirements to Model Elements in Rhapsody.
For example, creating a Dependency link with a <<trace>> Stereotype indicates how Requirements trace to Model Elements.

From Rhapsody, links can be created from Model Elements to Requirements using Dependencies.
This can be performed in a Model browser or inside Diagrams.
In addition, Stereotypes can be applied to the Dependencies to distinguish different kinds of links.
Any Model Elements like Use Cases, Classes, Operations, Attributes, States and Diagrams can be linked to Requirements.
Furthermore, indirect links can be created, for instance between a Test case and a Class, which has a Dependency to a Requirement.


Requirement Management Tables can be used to see and manage Requirements and links to Model Elements in Rhapsody.
