Abstract:
Artifact traceability during software development allows reusability and increases quality and productivity. Software requirements should be traceable because they represent the needs of a certain product. In several processes during software development cycle, requirements are related to other artifacts such as test suites and automation scripts. Configuration management assures the usage of an input file version corresponding to a software requirements version during automated tests. This research proposes an integrated process for software development, using configuration management from requirements up to test suites for automated tests. This article describes the effect of absence of configuration management on the control over software artifacts versions.
