Enumeration is the practice of compacting content by packaging related items into reusable categories.

Enumerations are a common and useful way of organising recurring information. They are used across many areas, including requirements management, databases, software development and testing.

Enumerations are not limited to one type of content. For example:

System:

  • CRM
  • Billing
  • IAM
  • Data Warehouse

Database Operation:

  • Create
  • Read
  • Update
  • Delete

Urgency:

  • Low
  • Medium
  • High
  • Critical

Stackable Jacks Method accommodates them so that recognised categories can be reused throughout analysis rather than repeatedly recreated.
