Jama Connect Review

Jama Connect is used in our company as a repository for requirements, product risks and test cases testing the requirements.<br>Jama helps to identify sub requirements that are not linked to any parent requirements. It also helps to generate the verification and validation protocols on the fly after allowing the user to pick the required test cases. Other custom reports are used to generate the requirements documents, risks documents and traceability documents that show the tracing of requirements to their test evidence.

Jama Connect has been invaluable to our organization as a common place to host our product's specifications (user needs, system and module requirements, system interface), testing (test cases and traceability), as well as risk management documentation. All of our recent projects make use of Jama Connect and is used by the majority of our engineers.

We use Jama Connect as a requrements tool. Before we had not a well working requirements tool. With Jama Connect we had the chance to build it up propper and clean. Also the support was really helpful. The scope is to have a tool to show up requirements and all the related usecases like tests, etc.

We use Jama Connect to manage our IEC 61508 functional safety requirements that are used to certify our products. Jama Connect had an out of the box solution which allowed us to have tools to support all our artifacts and were able to further exploit its customization to support our companies unique processes. All safety and non safety requirements across every engineering function uses the tool in this use case.

We are using JAMA Connect to track our requirements coming from Customer Requirements to our System Requirements and gather all Problems and Changes in development of Car Displays with it. We use it to get proof to our customers of following up on our tests and problem reports. This in conjunction with automated testing and integration of these tests with JAMA.

We use JAMA for requirements management. We required a database to manage the entire requirements lifecycle, from introduction to decommissioning. It is used mainly for security-related requirements. We have a dedicated team to work with the requirements and publish them using the Agile release management process.

We use Jama Connect to create, review, and manage relationships among needs, requirements, use conditions, design V&V test docs, and risks for medical device development. Having a centralized system to manage design input is critical and essential in establishing a robust means to conduct traceability and impact analysis.

Jama is used for Requirements Management and Test Plan Management across a few different Business Units in the company I work for. While we've had a fairly long-term relationship with Jama (~8 years), we've only fairly recently adopted it broadly in the organization. Matters involving 'coverage' and 'traceability' have been a long-running concern in our development work and it is on these fronts that we want Jama to improve this for us.

We use Jama to manage our system architecture. This includes all levels of requirements and those trace down to our testing protocols. Jama helps document and track our versions and changes. It also is our main tool for documentation and execution of the V&V process. In the next two quarters, we are also aiming to integrate our FMEAs into Jama Connect as well.

Our company uses Jama Connect to manage our risk and requirement deliverables, as well as, other deliverables within our design control process. This product helps us visualize and maintain (within a live database) our coverage of traces from user and customer needs to our design outputs for a project. It also promotes collaboration within our cross-functional teams for instantaneous feedback.

Jama Connect is used to generate and derive requirements, tie them to design artifacts, and trace to verification and validation activities. Baselined requirements "modules" are repurposed between programs to save in the requirements development effort.

Requirements management both at SW and system level. At software level: support the automation process for code auto generation, software test procedures auto generation and Interface Control Documents management. Management of test activities through customised items (as explained in GitHub - jamasoftware-ps/Automated-Testing: Sample code illustrating possible approaches to importing automated test results). At system level: management of Assembly Integration and Verification test activities through test run items.

Product management (marketing) produces a new product proposal in Word doc. We take the document and pull hard requirements out to create an engineering requirements document, adding any missing requirements from the marketing document. Periodically, we export the Jama Connect requirements back to a word document for project management and engineering to work to. Eventually, requirements are exported as excel so the test team can import them into their test case database.

Jama Connect is used across the whole organization for the purposes of requirements management and traceability. Different parts of the organization utilize Jama Connect more heavily or less heavily based on their individual needs. There is also some verification and validation testing that is managed and tracked through the Jama Connect software, but this is much more limited.
