Subject: DOCBOOK: Requirements Document - Markup?
I'm trying to formulate a software requirements document using DocBook markup. After looking through the elements in DocBook TDG and searching the web, I cannot locate an appropriate scheme for marking this text. What tags would you recommend for marking up a requirements document? ======== I have: Requirement #1 Title Description (a sentence or two) Acceptance Test (possibly an ordered list on how to test the req't was implemented) Requirement #2 Title Description Acceptance Test etc. (for many requirements) ======= I considered using sections and lists, but didn't feel this solution was "right": <section> <title>Req't #1</title> <para>The software shall do....</para> <para>To test:</para> <orderedlist> <listitem><para>Send the 'foo' command.</para></listitem> <listitem><para>Look for appropriate output.</para></listitem> <listitem><para>Make sure things didn't break.</para></listitem> </orderedlist> </section> ...etc.... ======== Meg Megan Golding | mgolding@secureworks.net Technical Writer | SecureWorks, Inc.
