Requirements Capture

DO-254 Lifecycle

Requirements capture for DO-254 projects

Requirements management is vital to a successful DO-254 program. This phase captures requirements from the system to the component. It also includes requirements traceability, which ensures that there are links between requirements, the code that implements them, and the tests/results that demonstrate verification of the requirements.
