== 1. Purpose and How to Use This Matrix ==

A Test Traceability Matrix (TTM) provides bidirectional traceability between:

<pre>Business Requirement ←→ Design Element ←→ Test Case ←→ Test Result</pre>
It answers two critical questions:

# '''Completeness:''' Is every requirement covered by at least one test? (forward trace)
# '''Necessity:''' Does every test correspond to a requirement? (backward trace — prevents test bloat)


=== Status values used in this document ===

{|
!width="50%"| Status
!width="50%"| Meaning
|-
| <code>Planned</code>
| Test case defined; not yet implemented
|-
| <code>Implemented</code>
| Test case exists in the test suite
|-
| <code>Passed</code>
| Test executed and passed in the latest run
|-
| <code>Failed</code>
| Test executed and failed in the latest run
|-
| <code>Blocked</code>
| Cannot be run due to an open defect or missing dependency
|-

=== Test case ID scheme ===

<pre>TC-<LEVEL>-<NNN>

LEVEL:
UT Unit test (single program in isolation)
IT Integration test (two or more programs together)
ST System test (full end-to-end)
NFT Non-functional test (performance, security, etc.)

NNN: zero-padded sequence

Examples:
TC-UT-001 Unit test #1
TC-ST-001 System test #1
TC-NFT-001 Non-functional test #1</pre>

-----


== 2. Test Levels and Types ==


=== 2.1 Unit tests (UT) ===

Test a single COBOL program in isolation using a synthetic control block. No real database or print file is required; stubs or mocks may be used.

'''Target programs:''' primesgen (sieve logic), primes (SQL operations), primesui (print formatting)


=== 2.2 Integration tests (IT) ===

Test two or more programs working together. Typically: primesgen + primes (with a real database), or primesgen + primesui (with a real print file).


=== 2.3 System tests (ST) ===

Test the complete stack end-to-end: compile all programs, set up the database, run primesmain with a command-line argument, inspect all outputs.


=== 2.4 Non-functional tests (NFT) ===

Test quality attributes: performance, security (credential exposure), operability (return code, log completeness).

-----


== 3. Requirements Coverage Matrix ==

Each row is a requirement. Each column is a test case. A cell contains <code>✓</code> if the test covers that requirement.
