Test Management 101: Traceability

Why do we test? Testing proves that our application works properly. Traceability, or being able to trace requirements to test cases, forms the foundation of your testing strategy. Test traceability is the ability to link a test to a set of requirements and verify that the application works as expected. Traceability matters as your product scales. When your application is small, it’s easy to pinpoint what’s broken. Most of these requirements can be tracked in a spreadsheet.

What Is Document Review?

In the context of the software development lifecycle (SDLC), document review makes it easier for an organization to curate, govern, and manage the lifecycle of digital artifacts beyond source code. These include documentation, spreadsheets, presentations, image flies, system and architectural images, and other files related to software projects. It is a discipline often practiced in regulated industries, or where quality certification is a requirement.
