Baselines
- Bruno Marotta
Overview
A baseline represents the state of a set of requirements at a specific point in time. A baseline might represent a project milestone, such as an important review or a new release. Baselines are used to identify changes in a set of requirements.
A baseline contains the state of each requirement, including the structure of the tree when the baseline was created. The structure is saved since easeRequirements enables you to review the baseline in Tree form.

Create baseline | Right click any item in the project tree view, select Create Baseline, enter the name of the new baseline and select Create.
