This feature ontology groups features from the perspective of what a user can do.

Each feature will have a landing page with links to the following:

  • Feature Design Document (Developer's intent)
  • Functional Spec (How the feature works from a User's perspective)
  • Test scripts (Verify the feature works)
  • Discussion for future improvements (Tied to feature requests and to a filter of related bugs)
  • Relationship to other features (Features that need to be tested when this feature changes)
