CTAL-TA Traceability matrix table in LaTeX #61
Comments
You have one extra alignment character (
Your full table from commit https://github.com/istqborg/istqb-ctal-ta/commit/18e3d5fd285231e73d9d29e0ec4f59a3342c6886 does not seem in line with the criteria from item 5 in #51 (comment). Namely, my code from #51 (comment) assumes that the table will fit on a single page and will only contain a single matrix. Both these assumptions seem broken by the full table, although it's difficult for me to see how the full table should look just by looking at the code from commit https://github.com/istqborg/istqb-ctal-ta/commit/18e3d5fd285231e73d9d29e0ec4f59a3342c6886. If you need a table that would span several pages, you may need to break the table into several smaller tables, each of which should fit on a single page and be written in a separate If all "traceability matrix" tables follow a unified format, perhaps it would be easier for you to write them in YAML or Markdown instead of LaTeX. This would make them easier to read, write, and automatically validate. Alternatively, I can produce the LaTeX tables for you if you provide me with screenshots or other examples of the expected output. However, this may slow you down depending on my availability; removing the need for writing tables in LaTeX should be significantly more time-efficient. |
For example, I can encode the traceability matrix from #51 (comment) with the following simple YAML document: matrix:
1: [Understand what testing is and why it is beneficial, 6]
2: [Understand fundamental concepts of software testing, 22]
3: [Identify the test approach and activities to be implemented depending on the context of testing, 6]
4: [Assess and improve the quality of documentation, 9]
5: [Increase the effectiveness and efficiency of testing, 20]
6: [Align the test process with the software development lifecycle, 6]
7: [Understand test management principles, 6]
8: [Write and communicate clear and understandable defect reports, 1]
9: [Understand the factors that influence the priorities and efforts related to testing, 7]
10: [Works par of a cross-functional, 8]
11: [Know risks and benefits related to test automation, 5]
12: [Identify essential skills required for testing, 5]
13: [Understand the impact of risk on testing, 4]
14: [Effectively report on test progress and quality, 4] Both "FL" and "Foundation Level" are already part of the metadata from the original document and don't need to be specified. However, your full table from commit https://github.com/istqborg/istqb-ctal-ta/commit/18e3d5fd285231e73d9d29e0ec4f59a3342c6886 indicates that a traceability matrix can be more complex and would require a more general YAML format. If you could help me understand the anatomy of a traceability matrix, we should be able to find a better input format than LaTeX. |
If there is a way how to create such a table easier than using LaTeX, that would be a much preferred. The table is always a combination of LOs and BOs, and the table width and length depend on the number of BOs and LOs in the syllabus. Attached, you can find the table for CTAL TA syllabus. All products follow this structure; just the content and respective sizes are different. |
I designed a YAML schema for writing traceability matrices: business-outcomes: map(str(), key=str())
learning-objectives: include('learning-objectives', required=False)
---
learning-objectives:
sections: map(str(), key=any(str(), int()))
objectives: map(include('objective'), key=str())
---
objective:
description: str()
k-level: str()
business-outcome: str(required=False)
business-outcomes: any(list(str()), str(), required=False) For example, here is how we would write the traceability matrix from document business-outcomes:
BO-TA1: Support and perform appropriate testing based on the software development lifecycle followed
BO-TA2: Apply the principles of risk-based testing
BO-TA3: Select and apply appropriate test techniques to support the achievement of test objectives
BO-TA4: Provide documentation at appropriate levels of detail and quality
BO-TA5: Determine the appropriate types of functional testing to be performed
BO-TA6: Contribute to non-functional testing
BO-TA7: Contribute to the prevention of defects
BO-TA8: Improve the efficiency of the test process with the use of tools
BO-TA9: Specify the requirements for test environments and test data

Admittedly, there is some duplicity where the author writes learning objectives (LOs) twice: once at the beginnings of chapters and then again in the YAML file. If this is undesirable, we can collect the LOs from the chapter beginnings and only specify the business objectives (BOs) and the mapping between the LOs and BOs. Here is how this might look like in a YAML schema: business-outcomes: map(str(), key=str())

The simplified solution without duplicating LOs is sleek and simple. So I would go with it. Also, BOs are currently stored in chapter 0 (see TA syllabus) for all syllabi. We could get it from there easily as well, and avoid duplications. |
They contain both the LOs and their K-levels. Furthermore, they also contain the named sections and subsections that are used to structure the LOs and that are also included in the traceability matrix table.
I did not know this. We may need to add an explicit identifier for the business outcomes section such as Since both LOs and BOs are already known, we may simplify the YAML schema even further to only contain the incidence matrix: matrix: map(list(str()), str(), key=str()) Here is how we would write the traceability matrix from document matrix:

I can do that for existing syllabi without any issues. It could bring simplification in setting up MD table for BOs.
That is great. Super simple input for complex tables, which otherwise took hours to set up even in Excel. |
Definitely so. The authors could write the BOs as a list, like they do for LOs, and the template would cause them to be displayed as a table. For example, here is how the BOs in the TA syllabus might be written: ## Business Outcomes {.business-outcomes}

@danopolan Besides your review of #90, please let me know if you'd like me to continue by adding traceability matrices to any existing syllabi. Having me do it allows me to iron out any kinks in the implementation from #90 that may only become apparent after typesetting an actual traceability matrix for actual learning objectives and business outcomes. |
@Witiko this is great. We will or you could test traceability matrix rendering it in full scope for CTAL TA syllabus in beta branch. You are welcome to proceed with changes there. I will implement it to other syllabi while we have TA implementation approved by @mhamburg as an Product Owner of TA syllabus. |
I will be happy to later today. As I wrote in #61 (comment), I welcome the opportunity to try out the implementation on an actual syllabus before you do, so that I can fix the bugs before they impact the authors. I assume the traceability matrix for the CTAL-TA syllabus is given by the document
