Selected Answer: D
A Requirements Traceability Matrix (RTM) is the best tool for tracking requirements, even on smaller projects. It helps link requirements to project deliverables, ensuring that all requirements are addressed throughout the project lifecycle. The RTM allows the business analyst to trace requirements from their origin through development, testing, and final implementation. This is useful regardless of the number of requirements, as it ensures nothing is overlooked.

D. Requirements trace matrix A Requirements Trace Matrix (RTM) is a tool used to track and manage requirements throughout the project lifecycle. Even in smaller projects with few requirements, an RTM can be valuable in ensuring that each requirement is linked back to its source and that its implementation is tracked through to completion. It helps maintain transparency and control over the requirements and their status during the project.

No mention of Coverage Matrix in BABOk 3.0. Requirements Life Cycle Management should have it. A coverage matrix is a table or spreadsheet used to manage and facilitate the tracing of requirements. This simple approach is used on simple projects where there are only a few requirements or on projects where traceability is very limited and not too detailed.
