Traceability Review

LMU/COICP Example

Traceability Review Example

Confirm LMU/COICP implementation changes trace to work items, requirements, design sources, implementation evidence, verification status, and known gaps before integration.

ES-108 Traceability Evidence Chain

Example purpose

This artifact records the ES-108 traceability review.

Traceability ensures that integrated changes are not arbitrary code changes. Each change should connect to a work item, LMU requirement, design source, implementation evidence, and verification status.

None identified.

Traceability gaps

Gap Work Item Downstream Defect / Risk Required Follow-Up
Additional verification needed for invalid status transitions. IW-004 DEF-001 Add ES-109 status-transition tests.
Additional denied-action tests required. IW-005 DEF-002 Add ES-109 access-control matrix tests.
Focused review required for evidence write failure behavior. IW-007 DEF-003 Add ES-109 failure-path tests and architecture review.
Emergency/prohibited category handling needs focused verification. IW-007 DEF-004 Add ES-109 Campus Safety boundary test.
Build/test command evidence not finalized. Integration verification DEF-005 Formalize ES-109 command evidence.

Review decision

Traceability accepted with gaps carried forward to ES-109 testing focus.

The implementation increment is traceable enough to integrate conditionally because no untraceable changes were identified and all gaps are visible.
