In their own words
OSRMT
OSRMT is a free, configurable open-source tool for defining and managing software requirements. Its workflow spans features, requirements such as use cases, design, implementation, and test cases, while tracking how requirements connect and progress. Work can be organized by phase, and teams can configure the tool and manage multiple projects at once. The project describes both a single-user desktop application and a multiuser web application with a centralized server and desktop or web client. The README lists Windows, Linux (CentOS), and macOS as tested systems. Desktop setup requires one of those operating systems, an archive utility, and JRE 1.8 or later. The web version deploys on JBoss and is accessible locally on port 8080. Oracle, MySQL, MS SQL, and PostgreSQL are listed as external database options; no additional database setup is required for initial use. The project uses the GNU GPL-2.0 license. Users can look to issue reports, a request process, an FAQ, online source and documentation, and a community support email address.
