Cinnamon Features

Feature

Description / Details

Building Block Framework

Cinnamon provides a framework to quickly develop new and powerful building blocks that

  • are configurable by business understandable parameters (e.g. hideBenchmark)

  • that have intelligent default values

set to ease adding the building block in
  • that allow to add building blocks to a report type without

large
  • configuration effort

  • provide the reporting logic to

    • handle

extreme cases, optimise
    • exception cases (e.g. hide risk figures if <24 data points)

    • optimize the visualisations (e.g. mandates that have started within the reported period)

Regression

Building Block Testing

Cinnamon supports the definition of automated regression tests for each building block by defining test cases by

  • the parameter values for the test case

  • the expected result (abstract report)

Documentation

Cinnamon can automatically produce a documentation of a building block showing

  • A sample visualisation for the building block

  • All parameters consumed including default values

  • A list of selected use cases (from the regression test cases or seperate documentation cases)
