This is to provide evidence that all the software requiremnts are met on completion of testing.

This document establishes the tracebility between the requirements and test cases executed in the system phase.

Traceability matrix is to trace the requirements back and forth i.e tracing the requirements from BRS/FSD to Design to code to testcases.

Trecebility matrix is mapping between software Requierment and Test case . It is use to make sure that test case consists all Functional  Requierment .

  Was this answer useful?  Yes

Traceablilty matrix is used to trace the Functional Specification with the corresponding Test case to check whether all the Functionality has been carried throughout the SDLC and tested or not.

FS --> Design --> Code ---> Test Case

The Main use of traceability matrix is to find the defect and in which phase that particular defect was introduced.

Sample Format:

S.No          Requirement ID              Testcase ID(s)

Traceability matrix is a documentation/matrix which defines the relationship between the requirement and the test case in which the requirement has been tested. This helps us to know if all the requirements specified have been covered in the test case suite

Traceability matrix is a table that correlates any two baseline documents that require a many to many relationship to determine  completeness of the relationship. It is often used with high level requirements and detailed requirements of the software product and to the matching parts of high level design, detailed design, test plan and test cases

Traceability Matrix as the name suggests is "tracing" of something in a stipulated format.
The mapping could be between the requirements and the build.The best possible solution could be known by classifying it into forward traceability and backward traceability.

You map requirements to design,design to code etc..
Let me know if this ans does'nt satisfy ..

RTM:

it is used to tracking back from defects to requirements. From this, we can easily track, in which phase the problem araises and who developed that phase.

While preparing the test cases & gug reports:
Req's >> Design >> Coding >> Test cases >> Defects

Tracking from defects to req's:
Req's << Design << Coding << Test Cases << Defects.

Hope it clarifies..

Tracebility matrix(TM) in simple terms can be defined as a logical relationship between the requirement and test cases for one-look understanding.

TM varies from company to company. Companies develop their own TM for better outlook of Requirement and Test cases.

It depicts the requirement coverage of the document which is a part in SDLC process.

It is prepard by Team Leader or a test engineer having 7 to 10 years of experience.

Treceility matrix shows whether our testcases has covered all the requirements or not and these are ready for the execution or not.

Traceblity Matrix is created to verify 100% Coverage of Requirements.  It useful to verify how test cases are traced to requirment catalogue and use cases.

Its format is like below:-


Requirement ID, Use Case, No. Of Test Cases, Test Case
R1.1,  U1, 3, 1.1, 2.2

A traceability matrix is used to map requirements to test cases in order to verify that test cases have covered all requirements.  It is used after all of the test cases have been prepared.  A traceability matrix is typically included in the same distributed quality management system that handles test case development and defect tracking.

Traceability matrix is nothing but from the word itself we can say that it is to trace the test case that is to check we have written all the test case based upon the requirements or not normally we have to use this traceability matrix at the time of release the product
