This release focuses on internal changes such as a Public API, the ReqIF integration and queue in Jira.

Mostly a technical release

2.5.0 is a major version because there are major changes in terms of internal package names and build process, but it has few immediately-visible features. Our performance tests for Data Center show no visible impact for our changes, neither for Confluence nor Jira, so in theory all should go well.

Note

Important

Please configure an administrator username in Jira for the queue.

Requirement Yogi for Jira - Basically it was required for the best performance, to ensure we support multinode environments and the Data Center requirements.


A new, public API

You are now able to program extensions to integrate Requirement Yogi with other systems!

Unofficial support for ReqIF and other formats

...

Since we've implemented the Jira bulk issue creation for requirements, we've seen issues for users who create more than 2,000 issues and want to keep them in sync.

  • A queue in Jira will allow us to reliably notify Confluence of changes (issue rename, issue move, etc).

  • The drawback is that it requires a username in Jira's administration.
