Functional requirements, Artifacts tracing, OntologiesAbstract
This paper proposes an ontology that defines and integrates the concepts adopted for use cases and test cases specification. These concepts belong to the metamodels of different Requirements Engineering and testing management supporting tools, and their formalization in an ontology language prevents using concepts ambiguously and enables interoperability among the involved tools, in order to achieve semantic consistency and artifacts tracing.
