Trace Requirements and Find Gaps

Link requirements to functions, assets and tests, and find what is missing.

  1. Open Verification → Traceability Matrix. In the left pane set Left (Y Axis) to your requirements document and Top (X Axis) to a class such as Action or Test Case.
  2. Choose the relationship type (for example satisfied by or verified by) and click empty cells to create links. Turn on Gaps only to see rows without links.
  3. Choose ✦ AI ▾ → Traceability Assist (suggest missing links), review the suggestions and accept the correct ones.
  4. Open a requirement's Spider diagram (Open ▾ → Spider) to see its whole trace web; Impact Analysis shows what a change would affect.
  5. Check gaps from other angles: Verification → RVTM (the Unverified card), Verification → Model Checks, or the Database query class:Requirement AND NOT relationship:"verified by".
  6. Report with Export ▾ in the matrix, or the document's RVTM, VCRM or TVM reports.
