ALM integration
AI test case generation and ALM synchronization with IBM DOORS Next, ETM, and OSLC
KomAInu connects ALM platforms such as IBM DOORS Next, IBM Engineering Test Management, and Polarion through OSLC. It synchronizes system requirements, generates candidate test cases and test procedures, and sends approved updates back with traceability preserved.
One governed flow from requirement to test
AI-powered ALM integration connects requirements management and test management so teams can work from a single traceability chain. KomAInu uses OSLC to retrieve requirement context, draft test content, and synchronize only approved artifacts back to the ALM.
Requirements and tests drift when systems are disconnected
When requirements change in one tool and test content lives in another, teams lose time reconciling versions and risk incomplete coverage.
Disconnected records
Manual reconciliation between DOORS Next requirements and ETM test artifacts introduces delay and error.
Broken traceability
Requirement updates can leave related test content obsolete unless links and approval states stay synchronized.
Review bottlenecks
Teams need AI acceleration without losing human control over governed ALM artifacts.
How it works
Synchronize requirements and tests without creating another silo
01
Connect through OSLC
Connect IBM DOORS Next and IBM Engineering Test Management through OSLC, and integrate Polarion-compatible workflows.
02
Generate candidates
Generate review-ready test cases and test procedures from the source requirement and its lifecycle context.
03
Review and synchronize
Engineers approve proposed changes before KomAInu writes them back with traceability preserved.

Links that preserve requirements-to-test context
OSLC connects requirements-management and quality-management resources through explicit links. In IBM Engineering Lifecycle Management, those relationships can express that a requirement is validated by a test artifact and that the test validates the requirement.

How does KomAInu connect to IBM DOORS Next and Engineering Test Management?
KomAInu uses OSLC to connect requirements in IBM DOORS Next with test management in IBM Engineering Test Management. It reads requirement context and existing links, then keeps approved test updates connected to their source requirements.
Can AI generate test cases from IBM DOORS Next requirements?
Yes. KomAInu can use an IBM DOORS Next requirement as the source for candidate test cases. The generated content is presented for human review before it becomes an approved ALM artifact.
Can KomAInu generate test procedures as well as test cases?
Yes. From a requirement, KomAInu can generate candidate test cases and the test procedures needed to execute them, with the level of detail tailored to the team’s ALM workflow.
How are approved test changes synchronized back to the ALM?
After review and approval, KomAInu synchronizes the accepted updates back to the connected ALM while preserving the requirement-to-test relationships used for traceability and impact analysis.
Does KomAInu use OSLC for ALM integration?
Yes. OSLC provides the integration layer for Requirements Management and Quality Management resources, letting KomAInu work with linked ALM artifacts instead of copying them into an isolated system.
Can KomAInu integrate with Polarion?
Yes. KomAInu is designed to integrate with ALM environments such as Polarion through OSLC-compatible workflows, subject to the connectors and permissions available in your deployment.
How does OSLC preserve requirements-to-test traceability?
OSLC preserves traceability by keeping explicit links between requirements-management and quality-management artifacts. Teams can navigate from a requirement to the test content that validates it and use those links for change impact analysis.
Is AI-generated test content reviewed before it is synchronized?
Yes. KomAInu generates candidates, not unreviewed production artifacts. A qualified engineer reviews the proposed test cases and procedures before approved changes are synchronized to the ALM.
