Borland TeamDefine: Bringing Software Requirements to Life!

Today saw the launch of Borland® TeamDefine™ a simulation tool that lets business analysts easily translate initial software project concepts into working models through storyboards and interactive simulations. Team members can then try these simulations to gain true understanding of the features and functions before any development begins.

In minutes, TeamDefine can render an interactive simulation that "shows" a requirement in a way that Microsoft® Word documents can't. This leads to dynamic conversations, valuable feedback and faster consensus between business and development teams. TeamDefine simulations help teams rapidly deliver high-quality applications by reducing rework and eliminating scope creep.

At Borland, our team is now using our own product to explore our own requirements. We've had a lot of different software troupes, but the number that actually got to use the product they built as a part of their job is very small. We have had a lot of fun building TeamDefine, and it has developed into a product of which we are unabashedly proud (and are having a lot of fun using). Check it out for yourself by watching the (funny) video below and downloading a free trial on: http://www.borland.com/downloads/download_teamdefine.html. Play with it and let us know what you think!
