I would like some information on problem report tracking databases that run on the Apollo. Our group is doing some preliminary investigation on what else is available before we consider reworking our own. Right now I just need basic info about the product (name, vendor, price, major features, etc.). I think our requirements are fairly generic, but to clarify what we're after here are some needed/desired features that occur to me. By the way, I'll use PR to stand for a generic Problem Report - something that is generated by a customer or developer to report a bug, or request an enhancement. Needs -------------------------- - Open/Close/Modify PR's. - Flexible PR format (i.e. we can control what fields are in the PR). - Flexible report generation. Wants --------------------------- - Ability to have multiple submitters for the same PR, and/or equivalence multiple PR's. - Ability to prioritize PR's. - Ability to assign PR's to individual developers. - Ability to tie PR's to source files that are modified. - Notion of releases and the set of PR's that have been fixed in a given release. - On-line access to PR database by customers for submitting and viewing status of PR's. Please e-mail responses - I'll summarize if there is sufficient info. Thanks in advance, Ron Pyke Boeing Aerospace & Electronics pyke@escaegate2.boeing.com

Our group is doing some preliminary Apollo has one they bought from some other company. It wasn't actually a primary product of that company, but (I believe) something they used internally and sold to Apollo on the condition their name wasn't mentioned. Having used it I can see why. Whatever you try out, describe it to someone at Apollo and make sure it's isn't the same as the one they are using. -- Alfalfa Software, Inc. | Poste: The EMail for Unix nazgul@alfalfa.com | Send Anything...
