A Traceability Matrix is a two-dimensional table that correlates two entities, such as requirements and test cases, allowing for tracking between them. This tool helps assess coverage achieved during testing.
Key Features:
- Clear visualisation of relationships between requirements and tests
- Ability to identify missing test cases or untested requirements
- Supports impact analysis when requirements change
Benefits:
- Improved requirement coverage assessment
- Enhanced communication among team members regarding testing status
- Streamlined change management processes
A well-maintained traceability matrix is essential for ensuring comprehensive testing and meeting project objectives.
