This capability ensures that all stakeholders can track changes over time, minimizing the risk of losing critical design updates. Implementing this requirement will provide a safeguard against confusion and will aid in maintaining project integrity throughout the development process.
-
Acceptance Criteria
-
Version control functionality allows stakeholders to save a design iteration after making adjustments to the project. Users need to ensure that they can successfully create a new saved version of their design and that this version is distinct from previous ones.
Given a user has modified a design, when they save the design, then a new version is created with a unique version identifier that is listed in the version history.
Users need to have the capability to compare different versions of a design. This is essential for stakeholders to evaluate changes made and determine if they prefer reverting to a previous version.
Given two versions of a design exist, when a user selects the compare option, then the differences between the two versions are visually highlighted, allowing the user to see what has changed.
Stakeholders often require the ability to revert to previous design iterations if a newly modified design does not meet their expectations. This scenario focuses on ensuring that reverting functionality works correctly.
Given a user is viewing a design version, when they select to revert to a previous version, then the system will restore the previous version as the active design with a confirmation message displayed.
Users need to access a comprehensive version history list that displays all modifications made to the design. This history is crucial for understanding the evolution of the project and tracking updates.
Given the version control system is active, when a user accesses the version history section, then they should see a complete list of all saved versions with timestamps and user identifiers.
In the case of accidental overwrites, stakeholders must receive notifications about changes made to designs they may have been currently working on. This ensures transparency in modifications.
Given a new version of a design is saved while another user is viewing the active design, when the save occurs, then the other user will receive a notification indicating changes have been made to the design they are currently viewing.
To prevent confusion, users need clear indicators within the interface showing the currently active design version they are working on. This helps in maintaining clarity during collaborative efforts.
Given a user is actively working on a design, then the interface should prominently display the current version identifier at the top of the design workspace.

Users receive notifications when milestones are reached or deviations from the sustainability goals occur.
Given that the user is subscribed to notifications, when a milestone is reached or a deviation is detected in resource usage or emissions, then the system should send an alert to the user via email or in-app notification with relevant details.
Users can generate comprehensive sustainability progress reports to share with stakeholders.
Given that the user has tracked sustainability metrics for at least one month, when they request a report, then the system should generate a report detailing metrics for resource usage, waste production, and carbon emissions with visual representations (charts/graphs) included.
Users have the ability to adjust their sustainability goals based on real-time data and feedback.
Given the user is viewing real-time progress towards their sustainability goals, when they identify a need for adjustment in the targets, then they should be able to modify the goals directly within the platform and save those changes without errors.
The system maintains a history of past targets and adjustments made by users for accountability and retrospective analysis.
Given that a user has adjusted their sustainability goals, when they access the historical data section, then the system should display a complete log of all changes made to the sustainability targets, including dates, metrics, and reasons for adjustments.
