Lightweight Open BMW Software Traceability Evidence Report

LOBSTER

The Lightweight Open BMW Software Traceability Evidence Report allows you to demonstrate software traceability and requirements coverage, which is essential for meeting standards such as ISO 26262.

This package contains the core LOBSTER tools: the basic API and tools for generating reports.

Tools

You can generate a report linking everything together with lobster-report. The report is in JSON, but you can generate more readable versions of it with additional tools:

• lobster-online-report: Preprocess a JSON report to contain github references instead of local file references
• lobster-html-report: Generate a HTML report
• lobster-ci-report: Generate a compiler-message like output, useful for CI

Requirements

• lobster-online-report: This tool needs git 1.7.8 or higher to support git submodules
