traceability

As we look to deploy or improve a requirements practice, the output should lead to a set of complete and quality requirements. A way to get there is to ensure that requirements have been captured in all pertinent categories and are testable. Often times, requirements focus on user needs and limited functional areas. But what may be overlooked are lesser requirements categories (e.g., security, usability, etc). It is therefore essential to capture requirements that ensure coverage in the requirements space.
