Testing Techniques for Tracing and Validating Requirements

Testing Techniques for Tracing and Validating Requirements explains the role of business analysis in the testing process. Participants learn the steps required to both validate requirements and analyze models with stakeholders, and to verify that the solution conforms to the technical specifications. The course emphasizes the importance of establishing a testing methodology and helps those who perform business analysis trace those requirements throughout the testing process. As part of the planning process, participants develop a master test plan that includes the test goals and test strategies.
