Create Summary
Create Summary is a feature available in the ValiAssistant. It takes a selected requirement or requirements, analyzes the requirement text, and creates a summary document in the Analysis module. This contains an overview paragraph based on the content of the requirements as well as lists out the main performance parameters. Additionally, this text can then be manipulated and edited in the analysis module. This feature accelerates the process of creating a performance document from the requirements, saving time and reducing the need for manual work to extract this information.
Here is how it looks like:

Steps to Create Summary
Create Summary is composed by 2 main stages: “Pre-loading” and “Confirmation”. These stages are detailed below.
1 - Pre-loading
After triggering Create Summary, the user is informed of exactly how many requirements will be processed by the summary creation process and can decide if they want to continue.
