How to Staff To top of page

"Any Role" is used to represent any one of the roles defined in this configuration of the Rational Unified Process (RUP), where someone playing the role may want to make changes to a RUP Artifact (Configuration Item).

The Integrator (as described in other Workflow Details) needs to be sure that artifacts delivered from the developer workspaces are sufficiently tested such that they can be incorporated into a testable build. The Integrator needs to be familiar with Project CM Policies and Test Practices.
