Count of "shall", "must", and "will" in a Rational DOORS requirements module

Answer

This can be done by running a script on the DOORS module to automate the task. Please follow the steps below:

1. Login to DOORS.

2. Open the concerned DOORS module, click on Tools -> Edit DXL.

3. Paste the script in the editor window:


//DXL code:

Object o

string s = null

string r = null

string t = null

string x = null

string y = null

string z = null

int count =  0

int countw = 0

int countz = 0

int sc = 0    // shallcount integer

int wc = 0    // willcount integer

int mc = 0    // mustcount integer

for o in current Module do{

 Regexp line = regexp "shall"

 x = o."Object Text"

 while (!null x && line x) {

  s = x[match 0] "\n"

                 ++count

  x = x[end 0 + 2:] // move past newline

 }

 sc=sc+count

 count = 0

}

print "Number of shalls in module is " sc "\n"

for o in current Module do{

 Regexp line = regexp "will"

 y = o."Object Text"

 while (!null y && line y) {

  r = y[match 0] "\n"

                 ++countw

  y = y[end 0 + 2:] // move past newline

 }

wc=wc+countw

 countw = 0

}

print "Number of wills in module is " wc "\n"

for o in current Module do{

 Regexp line = regexp "must"

 z = o."Object Text"

 while (!null z && line z) {

  t = z[match 0] "\n"

                 ++countz

  z = z[end 0 + 2:] // move past newline

 }

mc=mc+countz

countz = 0

}

print "Number of musts in module is " mc "\n"
