Glossaries

A glossary is a group of terms that you create to build consistent, common terminology for a project.

You can display the terms that constitute your glossary:
  • Create a filter that displays artifacts by artifact type.
  • Add terms to a collection.
You can look up terms from within the artifact editor using the Lookup Term icon, which becomes visible whenever you open and edit a text-based artifact.

You can link to a glossary term or create a new glossary term from selected text within a text based artifact.

Glossaries can contain attribute settings and comments. Glossary terms can be defined with the following content:
  • Name
  • Definition
  • Synonyms
  • Alternative spelling
  • Links to new and existing artifacts, including requirements
  • Comments
  • Custom attributes
