SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill creates Test Case Specifications (TCS) that map requirements to test scenarios, ensuring traceability from requirements to tests within docs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • TCS Document: Produces a structured TCS file with requirement traceability.
  • Scenarios & Validation: Includes test scenarios, validation criteria, and implementation references.
  • Traceability: Links TCS to REQ-* and ADRs.

Quick Start

Create TCS-010 for REQ-F-CART-001 with two test scenarios and traceability to ADR/REQ.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a Test Case Specification document with requirement traceability?

A Test Case Specification (TCS) document maps requirements to test scenarios with full traceability. This Skill generates structured TCS files that link requirements (REQ-*), architectural decisions (ADRs), implementation paths, test scenarios, and validation criteria in a single document during system testing.

What should a TCS document include to ensure requirements coverage?

TCS documents must include status, date, requirement references, ADR links, implementation paths, test purpose, preconditions, test scenarios, validation criteria, and traceability to design artifacts. This Skill produces complete TCS files with all these elements structured for validation of requirement coverage.

When do I need to generate a Test Case Specification for a component?

Generate TCS documents during the System Test stage for new components and functionality. TCS enables validation that all functional and technical requirements are covered by test scenarios and linked to their corresponding ADRs and implementations.

Can I link test scenarios directly to requirements and architecture decisions in a TCS?

Yes. This Skill generates TCS documents with explicit traceability: each test scenario links to specific requirements (REQ-*), references relevant ADRs, traces implementation paths, and validates against acceptance criteria, creating a complete audit trail.

What's the difference between a TCS and a simple test plan?

A TCS provides granular, requirement-level traceability with scenario detail and validation criteria tied to specific requirements and design decisions. Unlike general test plans, TCS documents ensure every requirement has a mapped test scenario with documented preconditions and acceptance validation.
