| Description: | In other words, the requirement traceability matrix is a document that maps and traces user requirement with test cases. The main purpose of Requirement Traceability Matrix is to see that all test cases are covered so that no functionality should miss while doing Software testing. Another factor for effective planning would be the proper listing of the testing scope with each feature associated with a design specification, environment, etc. Contact with all stakeholders has to be initiated at this stage, but also all external dependencies identified and service level agreements put in place. In order to properly measure the progress, evaluate the Entry and Exit criteria and to exercise control, we need to put in place metrics starting with Test Planning. |
