Requirements-Based Testing: An Overview

BACK TO LIST
This presentation provides an overview of the Requirements-Based Testing (RBT) process. RBT is a rigorous process for improving the quality of requirements and for deriving the minimum number of test cases to cover 100 percent of those requirements. RBT is comprised of two techniques: Ambiguity Reviews and Cause-Effect Graphing. An Ambiguity Review is used in the requirements phase of software development to identify ambiguities in functional requirements. The intent of an Ambiguity Review is to identify anything that is unclear, ambiguous or incomplete in the requirements. The elimination of these ambiguities improves the quality of those requirements. Cause-Effect Graphing is a test case design technique that is performed once requirements have been reviewed for ambiguity, and after they have been reviewed for content. Requirements are reviewed for content to insure that they are correct and complete. The Cause-Effect Graphing technique derives the minimum number of test cases to cover 100 percent of the functional requirements to improve the quality of test coverage.
