What is a Requirements Traceability Matrix? And How to Create One.

Описание: In this video, I want to answer the question, what is a Requirements Traceability Matrix and how do you create one?

Requirements Traceability Matrices are most often used in software projects, where they connect user requirements with elements of the final system, and document the test cases that will demonstrate that the system fulfills the requirements.

In a basic Requirements Traceability Matrix, each requirement will have:
• A unique ID or reference number
• A description
• Reference to the stakeholder, user, or customer that needs it
• The needs it meets or opportunities it fulfils
• The deliverables that contribute to meeting the requirement (usually given by WBS ID)
It may also include:
• Any design and quality standards, or specifications
• Indicative use cases
• Development processes
• Tracking of changes and how different product versions meet the requirements
• Testing requirements and scenarios, and maybe the test cases to be built.

Three Types of Traceability Matrix
1. Forward Traceability
2. Backward Traceability Matrix
3. Bidirectional Traceability

It is easy to construct a simple RTM spreadsheet and I have added one to our Project Management Templates Kit: https://school.onlinepmcourses.com/p/....
