LDRA announces the creation of a technology that automates the administration and traceability of software requirements. This technology automates the techniques and tools for the integration of requirements traceability with software testing and verification. On completion, the technology will be integrated into TBreq, the portion of the proprietary tool suite devoted to requirements-driven testing. The system addresses a need in safety- and mission-critical industries such as avionics, medical, defense and nuclear where requirements traceability and verification consume a significant portion of project budgets. The technology automatically captures requirement information for software development projects from a variety of sources, and it simplifies the construction of a requirements traceability matrix (RTM).
