This example shows how to assign a profile to a requirement set and get and set stereotype property values for requirements.

Open the ShortestPath project.

openProject("ShortestPath");

Load the shortest_path_tests_reqs requirement set.

rs = slreq.load("shortest_path_tests_reqs");

Assign the TestReqProfile profile to the shortest_path_tests_reqs requirement set.

importProfile(rs,"../TestReqProfile.xml");

Find the requirement with index 2.1.1. Apply the TestRequirement stereotype to the requirement.

testReq = find(rs,Index="2.1.1");
testReq.Type = "TestReqProfile.TestRequirement";

Get the value of the Reviewed stereotype property.

val = getAttribute(testReq,"TestReqProfile.TestRequirement.Reviewed")
val = 
0

Set the value of the Reviewed stereotype property to 1.

setAttribute(testReq,"TestReqProfile.TestRequirement.Reviewed",1)
