Here are some tips to get you started. Sections 1 - 3 are general, about creating, editing and labelling pages. Section 4 explains how the pages for the requirements analysis documentation are set up.

1. Create a page

  • Click "Create" and select "Blank Page" to create your first empty page.
  • Altermatively, click "..." (just to the right of the Create button) to create a page based on a existing template.
  • New pages are created as children of the page you are currently viewing.

2. Add to your page

  • Click "Edit" to enter the Confluence editor and use the page layouts feature to structure your content using sections and columns.
  • Use headings to format your text and drag and drop images into your page to provide visual interest.
  • Click "Insert more content" (the "+" dropdown on the editor toolbar) and select "Other Macros" to add macros for navigation, special formatting and other media.

3. Labelling pages

4. Organisation of the RI requirements analysis pages

Here are some points about how the content is organised. See sidebar left and figure right.

  • Top level page and topic pages

The Context and overview (RI) page is the top-level introductory page. Then there are 7 main topic pages, starting with General requirements and ending with Community support requirements. These are linked from the top level page - (1) in figure.

  • Topic requirements by RI

These are the main pages where content should initially be entered. For each RI, there are upto 7 pages, 1 per topic. They are linked from the 7 topic pages - (2) in figure. In several cases, there are less than 7 topic pages per RI. This is the case when no information has been gathered for that topic from that RI. If you need a new one of these pages created and linked, please ask . You can do that while editing any page by starting a "task list".

  • Requirements collated per RI

These pages collate the summary sections from each of the "topic requirements by RI" pages. Content of these pages is generated partially automatically - (3) in figure. Please take care when editing these pages i.e., do not remove or edit the macros.
