Requirements Traceability

Requirements traceability is the process of tracking and linking project requirements throughout their lifecycle, from initial specification to final implementation and testing. It ensures that each requirement is clearly connected to its corresponding design elements, development tasks, and test cases. This helps teams verify that all needs are addressed, changes are managed effectively, and the final product meets the original goals. Essentially, it creates a clear map showing how each requirement is fulfilled, promoting transparency, quality, and accountability in project development.
