Supporting Documents

You can upload documents to Oracle LSH and create a link from an object to the document. Oracle LSH keeps each document under version control, creating a new version number each time the document is uploaded. Oracle LSH never deletes a supporting document.

Users with the Manage Supporting Information privilege can link objects to supporting documents and outputs.

For example, you could store the following types of documents as validation supporting information for an object:

• a requirements document stating the purpose of the object and specifying functional requirements
• a design document that specifies the way the functional requirements will be achieved technically
• a test requirements document listing the functionality that must be formally tested
• actual test cases to be used in testing the object
• test results

The examples given above might all be appropriate requirements for promotion from Development to Quality Control, and require the last for promotion from QC to Production.
