Description

@LGSI-KarumuriHari

📝 Task Description

Establish comprehensive requirements traceability and feature hierarchy for the timpani system, similar to standards-based requirements documentation with multi-level feature breakdown (Level 1, Level 2, Level 3).

Changes Required:

  1. Create requirements documentation with functional (FR) and non-functional (NFR) requirements
  2. Implement 3-level feature hierarchy (WBS) for timpani system components
  3. Add requirements traceability matrix linking features to design documents
  4. Rename grpc_architecture.md to timpani_grpc_architecture.md
  5. Add legend and scope markers to architecture diagrams

📋 Checklist

Requirements & Traceability

  • Define functional requirements (FR) for timpani-o and timpani-n
  • Define non-functional requirements (NFR) with measurable targets
  • Create requirements traceability matrix document
  • Add requirements sections to all LLD documents
  • Link each LLD component to specific FR/NFR requirements

Feature Level Hierarchy (WBS)

  • Create 3-level feature breakdown table (Level 1, Level 2, Level 3)
  • Define Level 1: Top-level system components
  • Define Level 2: Major subsystem features
  • Define Level 3: Detailed feature requirements and descriptions
  • Add requirement IDs to each feature level
  • Add status and milestone information to feature table
  • Include features table in timpani_architecture.md

Architecture Documentation

  • Rename grpc_architecture.mdtimpani_grpc_architecture.md
  • Update all references to renamed file
  • Add legend to architecture component diagrams
  • Add scope markers to diagrams (✅ Implemented, 🔄 Partial, ⏸️ Planned)
  • Update README.md navigation

🧪 Testing Method

Requirements Validation

  • Verify all features mapped to 3-level hierarchy
  • Confirm each FR/NFR has unique ID
  • Check traceability matrix links all requirements to design docs
  • Validate that Level 3 descriptions are specific and measurable
  • Ensure all LLD documents reference their FRs/NFRs

Feature Table Validation

  • Verify table structure matches standard requirements format
  • Confirm Level 1, Level 2, Level 3 hierarchy is complete
  • Check that all major system components included
  • Validate requirement IDs follow naming convention
  • Ensure status markers (✅🔄⏸️) are accurate

Architecture Updates

  • Confirm renamed file exists: timpani_grpc_architecture.md
  • Verify old filename does not exist
  • Test all links to renamed file
  • Verify legend appears on all architecture diagrams
  • Check scope markers are visible and accurate
  • Validate color coding matches legend

Documentation Completeness

  • All 20+ LLD documents have requirements sections
  • Traceability matrix includes all components
  • NFR targets are measurable with actual values where available
  • Feature levels table renders correctly in markdown
  • Cross-references between documents work correctly
