AZ-400: Implement traceability policies decided by development

End-to-end traceability

• Supported tasks to facilitate traceability:
  • Create a branch from a requirement
  • Create a pull request of updated branch
  • Validate the pull request using a build pipeline
  • Create and run inline tests on requirements
  • Merge the pull request into the main, default branch
  • Deploy changes into production with deployment status to Azure Boards
  • Monitor and report on requirements traceability
• Link types used to construct links for Git repositories:
  • Build
  • Found in build
  • Integrated in build
  • Branch
  • Commit
  • Pull request
  • Integrated in release stage
• Requirements Traceability Matrix
  • Document that links requirements throughout the validation process
  • Ensures that all requirements defined for a system are tested in the test protocols
