Redmine

• the access would be by a remote client (not on the server itself)
• the options '-u' (for user id) and '-p' (for password) would be also required

gabriel,

Were you able to make any progress with your effort to tie DOORS in with redmine?

We are looking to reference specific requirements from DOORS in our tickets to provide full traceability from scm checkins to requirements. Not sure if this aligns with the solution you've achieved, but any input would be appreciated.

Hi Eric,

I didn't make any progress on this issue, since this task belong to "exploration" and as such has a very low level priority. One idea though is to create a table in Redmine db to mirror the "Requirements" item from DOORS and create also a table in Redmine db to enable to link to "Requirements" to the "Issues" (many-to-many); on DOORS side, a module would mirror the Issues and the link table "Requirements" to "Issues". I don't really like this since there is some need for synchro between db, but conceptually it should work.

The only question is then "how to synchronize those db ?", meaning "how can DOORS retrieve / send data from / to Redmine db ?" or the opposite one - how can Redmine retrieve ... from DOORS db ?

NB : any elements in DOORS (since v8 I think) as its own URL (since the object properties with a right click). This might be useful to make a soft-link from Issues to req and may be is enough for your need. (the solution described above would help answering the question : which are the issues impacting a specific Req)

hope this helps

Hi guys,
Were you able to make any progress with your effort to tie DOORS (or other requirement management tool) in with redmine?
