DM Documents
Documents that pertain to the Data Management System software are summarized below, and are described in detail in specific pages.
The LSST Project and DMS requirements and design documents are controlled, and are accessible through a special repository (which requires an account). These documents describe the DMS system as it is intended to exist by the end of the LSST construction phase.
Test documents are produced in LaTeX, however, since the test cases shall be related with the requirements, and since SE is working to integrate JIRA with Magic Draw, the plan is to generate Test Specifications and Test Reports from information gathered from JIRA. In order to do this, the Test Management for Jira plugin will be used (by Adaptavist). The list of custom fields required by DM are listed in Test Management Custom Fields. Here described the DM Test Approach
DM Software
The following documents describe the DMS as it exists today, as a functional prototype of the planned system.

The LSST Software User Guidedescribes how to download, build, and install the LSST Software Stack, how to run the command-line tasks, and how to configure the pipelines to develop your own data reduction pipelines. It also describes the supporting packages and their use. This document is geared towards end-users (e.g., Level 3, Science Collaborations) and Production operators who primarily need to run the code over large sets of data. Developers and advanced users who need to know both how to run the LSST Software and how to build on top of it should also read the LSST DM Developer Guide. on Confluence is obsolete, and exists only for reference purposes.
