Requirements Driven Testing

 

Requirements Driven Testing encompasses the tight coupling of requirements elicitation and testing. In requirements driven testing both requirements and tests are specified at the same level of abstraction. This allows tests to be considered even as part of the requirements specification. In a model based context correctness and completenss of the test model with respect to the requirements model can be investigated using consistency and coverage criteria. In particular cases (when the requirements models is sufficiently complete) tests can be generated from the requirements model.
