Links that I have found interesting for February 24th:
- Solution to Automatically Generate and Email TCR Reports – this solution provides a mechanism to generate and distribute PDF reports from TCR via email to one or more email ids. Examples are also given which will allow TCR PDF reports to be distributed by means of a web page interface and a simple cgi script which will send requested reports via email.
This solution provides a set of sample scripts which provide a process to email previously generated PDF reports from TCR. These were written and tested with reports generated from TCR 1.1.1, here after referred to as TCR. The PDF reports will need to be stored in a directory structure for access by the scripts with correct permissions. Also included is html and cgi example code to which will allow the user to send the same previously created TCR PDF reports to their email ID via a simple web front end.
- The operational context diagram – For many years, application architects and analysts have used the system context diagram (SCD) as a powerful tool to share the high-level view of a system. The SCD provides only a functional view of the system, a view that later leads to the use case model. To completely specify the system under development, non-functional requirements must be taken into account. NFRs create another view of the system context: the operational context diagram, which then segues to the operational model. In this article, learn about a technique to complement the SCD with a non-functional oriented operational context diagram.
