Component Help
For each component that you author, it is highly recommended that you write a component Help file with complete details of the component's functionality. This is in addition to the component description that is included in the common properties of a component. Fully documenting a component assists those who use it and also serves as the basis of a test plan.
Component Help is formatted with Hypertext Markup Language (HTML). The following list shows some of the information that can be included in the Help for a component:
- Functionality description
- Associated services and resources
- Associated components
- Expressed dependencies
- Exposed interfaces
- Configurable settings
- Component interactions
