PixRef Pro is a lightweight but powerful tool for automating project specific traceability checking. Traceability is a requirement of major software development quality standards covering all industries. It is also a particular focus of AutomotiveSPICE, mandated by all the major European OEMs for systems and software development.

PixRef facilitates the tracing of functional requirements right through the development life cycle at the required level of detail. It can verify that all requirements have been implemented and tested, in addition to ensuring that obsolete requirements are removed. It automatically generates a requirements traceability matrix (RTM) from current project files as part of a detailed HTML report. Click for example report.

 

The tool is particularly effective at scanning through large numbers of files extracted from a standard version control system and works with many file types, including text files, Microsoft® Office and MATLAB® Simulink^TM.

In contrast, requirements management tools based on a database tend to conflict with the need to keep development files under proper version and configuration control.
 
PixRef can also automate the traceability of process requirements right back to international, industry specific or customer specific standards, removing the need for managers to hold the myriad of requirements in their heads. New process models and standards are easily added as inputs to the tool.
