This is the question related to Traceability Matrix.
Say we have 10 requirements for a project. If one of the
testing team member misses the 9th requirement. Then how can
we justify the Traceability Matrix and what is the further
action to be taken. Please advice.

The RTM lists all the requirements in the SRS by giving the
requirement ids. The tester referes the SRS to write the
test cases and againg maps the test cases to SRS by giving
the test case ids in RTM against the requirement id. So if
any requirement is missed by Tester then he will miss the
test cases for that requirement. But when he will go to
update the RTM for test cases, he will not find test case
ids for that missing requirement. Hence the RTM helps out
to find any missing requirement and ensures the test
coverage by maping test case id with the requirement ID.

It is always good that traceability is mapped with
requiremnt, the use cases,then test case.
tester can write testcase based on the use cases, use case
must cover all the possible scenarios.
if any test case is missed out go back to use case,follow
by SRS.

Normally in any process orieneted company there will be
tool which tracks birectional requirement traceabilty.
requirement traceability tool also facilates to run
requirement GAP. All tagged requirements should have an
associated test case(s) otherwise GAP report will mark the
requirement with no test.
Usually GAP analysis will be done before baselining test
plan.

Answer / vignesh
This is the problem with the traceability matrix.
Traceability has following disadvantages
1. Any requirement missed/omitted cannot be tracked easily
2. Requirement not mentioned in the functional specs can be
tested.
For example, testing the boundary value conditions for
minimum deposit amount, say, 1000 INR. The following
conditions would be considered,
1.<1000
2.=1000
3.>1000
Here, FS only talks about the minimum amount to be
maintained in a customer's account. What is not mentioned
in the FS is also tested(<1000 and >1000). Therefore,
traceability is ineffective.
