Requirements traceability is a sub-discipline of requirements management within software development and systems engineering.Traceability as a general term is defined by the IEEE Systems and Software Engineering Vocabulary [1] as (1) the degree to which a relationship can be established between two or more products of the development process, especially products having a predecessor-successor ...
A requirements traceability matrix may be used to check if the current project requirements are being met, and to help in the creation of a request for proposal, [2] software requirements specification, [3] various deliverable documents, and project plan tasks. [4]
The PMI guide Requirements Management: A Practical Guide recommends that a requirements tool should be identified at the beginning of the project, as [requirements] traceability can get complex and that switching tool mid-term could present a challenge. [3] According to ISO/IEC TR 24766:2009, [4] six major tool capabilities exist:
IBM Engineering Requirements Management DOORS (Dynamic Object Oriented Requirements System) (formerly Telelogic DOORS, then Rational DOORS) is a requirements management tool. [4] It is a client–server application, with a Windows-only client and servers for Linux, Windows, and Solaris.
The Requirements Modeling Framework (RMF) is an open-source software framework for working with requirements based on the ReqIF standard. RMF consists of a core allowing reading, writing and manipulating ReqIF data, and a user interface allowing to inspect and edit request data.
It offers the ability to create, manage, and link artifacts from the beginning through the end of a design and development project [8] providing end-to-end traceability of all development artifacts [9] and giving managers a better handle on the shifting requirements that define their projects. [6]
LDRA tool suite is an integrated suite of software tools from LDRA, including: [citation needed] TBrun — an automated unit testing tool; TBmanager — a requirements traceability tool; TBevolve — supports software baseline management; TBsafe — supports certification objectives: DO-178C, Def Stan 00-55, IEC 61508 [7]
Requirements analysis is critical to the success or failure of a systems or software project. [3] The requirements should be documented, actionable, measurable, testable, [4] traceable, [4] related to identified business needs or opportunities, and defined to a level of detail sufficient for system design.
