Answer / prasad p.

Requirement Traceability Matrix (RTM) is prepared before
starts testing an application. As RTM is used to trace the
requirements with test cases. So after gathering
requirements RTM should pepare. The main purpose of RTM is,
no requirement should missed.

Answer / sm

we should prepare RTM before starting testing life cycle
with all the test cases and with required columns like test
case status like New,Open,closed and defer

So before releasing a project we can say easily by looking
at this RTM whether all the test cases covered or not,and we
can able to see the test cases status easily.
so we need to prepare before testing process starts

Answer / vikram

I have very different scenario when should one start writing tractability Matrix.

If you starts with BRD -> FRD - >Test scenario -> Test case -> Expected result - >Status

Business Analyst must start with RTM by referring first two steps (BRD (Business Scenario) & FRD (detail specification of the scenario)) rest of the steps must be done at QA department.

Now look at the tractability matrix in reverse direction from status to BRD........ we are tracing requirement at very initial location i.e BRD. If Business Analyst is having acceptance test done at initial level then you have very sound BRD and FRD ready for development and testing.
