Requirement Traceability Report
Track requirement coverage and validation across test cases, runs, and defects.
A Requirement Traceability Report provides clear visibility into how requirements are validated across test cases, test runs, and defects within a project. It establishes traceability between requirements and their test coverage and execution. Supported requirement sources include Jira, Linear, and ClickUp.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, ensure that test cases are generated from requirements, linked to test runs, and include execution results.

Report Structure
Report Overview
The report provides high-level visibility into:
- Requirement distribution by priority (Critical, Major, Medium, Minor)
- Test case count and automation coverage (Manual vs Automated)
- Traceability matrix mapping Requirements > Test Cases > Test Runs
Key Widgets
Requirements by Priority
Displays the total number of requirements categorized by business priority:
- Critical: Must-have functionality that blocks release if failed.
- Major: Core functionality that impacts primary workflows.
- Medium: Important but non-blocking enhancements.
- Minor: Optional or low-impact usability improvements.
Test Case Count
Shows the total number of test cases linked to requirements, split by execution type:
- Manual: Test cases executed by users.
- Automated: Test cases executed via automation workflows.
Traceability Matrix
The matrix provides bidirectional mapping between requirements and their test execution evidence.
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Requirement | Requirement title or story summary. |
| Test Cases | List of test case IDs linked to the requirement. |
| Test Runs | Test run records showing execution timestamps and status tags (Tested or Untested). |
