Adding features to application inventory
Get a quick overview of the functionalities that your development team needs to implement by adding features to your application inventory. When you analyze your application inventory, you can conveniently plan your application development in a more detailed way.
For example, you can create features that represent language packs and case types to ensure that you deliver an application that meets the requirements defined with your stakeholders. During application development, your team then turns features into usable functionalities.You can assign each feature a complexity level. Complexity indicates the time and effort that a team needs to implement a feature and impacts further estimation of the time required for application development.
