There wont be defects as such in RTM RTm basically means mapping the requirements with test cases.to make sure that all the requirements are covered in test cases.

Traceability matrix is prepared after you finish writing the test case and before executing the test cases, this is a mapping b/w requirements and the test case, this is done just to make sure whether every requirement has atleast one test case, preparing this matrix gives you a confidence that you are going test each and every feature atleast once. It provides better coverage.

Defects may be as follows.

-> If the mapping is not done properly between the test cases and requirements

-> There may be a chance to miss some of the requirements

-> There may be a chance to miss to cover all the test cases for requirements

-> There may be a chance to miss to update the doc for new CRS

Errors can occur when producing a traceability matrix for a test project.  These include:

1) Requirements may be mapped to the wrong test cases.

2) Traceability matrix may reference improper documents.

3) Some requirements may not be mapped to test cases.

4) Backward traceability provides misleading information causing test management to draw inaccurate conclusions.
