The IBM Rational Jazz Strategy One research project has shown that errors found during requirements specification phase can be 200 times less expensive to correct than at the end end of a project. Requirements management is the foundation of any project. Without a solid start, the project will always be struggling to achieve the control it needs to succeed. Can you afford not to?

What are Work Items? Rational Team Concert allows you to divide your work into Work Items Work Items are the fundamental mechanism to track and coordinate development tasks and workflows They provide the hub for linkage between the various artifacts in Rational Team Concert. Typical Work Item types in Scrum process are defects, Retrospective, Impediments, Story and tasks. New Work Item types can be added or existing types can be extended via the process specification. All Work Items are stored in the repository 4

Work Items: Central to Rational Team Concert Build includes change-sets Planning Source Control Build Report Plans define & organize Work Items Change-sets implement Work Items Work items describe the builds Reports show work item activity The Work Items are a central part in Jazz. As the slide says (animated one by one): - Planning component helps the user in defining and organizing Work Item - SCM changes implement/resolve Work Items - Because include changes then we can say that Work Items describe builds - Report component draws the Work Items activity The dashed arrow means that the relationship is derived from the 2 others!...
