15.10 Traceability Convention Requirements

Go To Phase 0 Developer Handbook Requirements

The Developer Handbook must define Traceability conventions for Phase 0 implementation artifacts.

Traceability conventions must identify how contributors record relationships among:

1. Part 3 FX logical elements
2. Part 4 implementation artifacts
3. DDS Topics
4. IDL structures
5. Generated types
6. Hand-authored source files
7. Configuration files
8. Scripts
9. QoS profiles
10. Logging categories
11. Exception-handling patterns
12. Repository locations
13. Review records

Traceability conventions must support forward and backward review. Reviewers must be able to trace from a Part 3 FX logical element to the Phase 0 implementation artifact that realizes it, and from a Phase 0 implementation artifact back to the FX logical element or implementation concern that justifies it.
