Report showing Use Case to Reqmts to Test Case
« on: June 11, 2015, 06:16:08 am »
Hi

I have Use cases linked to requirements statements.  I have linked my use cases to test cases.  How can I show in a report (rtf?) the test cases and the associated reqmts. statements?

Thanks

By making an RTF template?

It's not really clear what you are getting at.

For the Requirements - use the Section: Package | Element | External Requirements.
For the Test Case elements - these will be shown as relationships in the Connector Section (source and target sections).

My reading of the post is that RR wants to show traceability from requirements through to use cases then from use cases through to test cases, in other words multiple levels of traceability in one go pulled together in a report.

Hi,

Thanks for the replies.  You are correct - I would like to generate a report which shows Test Cases along with the requirements statements to which they are associated.  There is an indirect association from test cases to requirements.  There is a direct association from test cases to use cases.  There is a direct association from use cases to requirements statements.

The overall approach is to:
1. Document requirement statements
2. Document use cases
3. Associate each requirement statement to at least one use case
4. Document test cases
5. Associate each test case to at least one use case
All of the above are done.  My next step is now to generate a report of test cases which shows the requirements which are being tested.

Here is a screen shot which shows the relationships.  I would like to show this information in a report instead.

Thanks again for your feedback.
RR

I would probably make an SQL fragment for something like that.

Hi

Thanks for the reply.  I would have thought that this type of reference-ability would be an "out-of-box" feature.  I can certainly show the direct and in-direct links in the diagram but not as text content.  I'll focus on the SQL statement.

Thanks again.
