Baselines

Baselining is a powerful and important feature in codeBeamer. A baseline captures the state of digital content in a particular point in time, pretty much like tags mark a specific state of source code in Version Control Systems.

Creating a baseline means creating a snapshot of requirements, tracker items, wiki pages, documents, comments and attachments, as well as their cross-references. This enables the user to go “back-in-time” and browse the project and documents as they were at that time.

Baselining provides full traceability, which is very important for audits and accountability.
