You are the business analyst for your organization and you're reviewing a change to your requirements. During this impact analysis, what tool can best help you assess the total impact of a requirement change?
Traceability is the most effective tool for assessing the total impact of a requirement change. A traceability matrix maps relationships between requirements, business objectives, design elements, and test cases, enabling the business analyst to:
Identify dependencies: Determine which requirements, deliverables, or components are affected by the change.
Evaluate ripple effects: Assess how the change impacts downstream tasks (e.g., development, testing) and upstream goals (e.g., business objectives).
BABOK Reference (Chapter 5: Requirements Life Cycle Management - Trace Requirements):
Traceability ensures comprehensive impact analysis by linking requirements across the project lifecycle.
