Requirement Traceability Matrix — Total Traceability from Epic to Defect. Always Current, Never Manual.
WalnutAI's RTM maps every Epic → Feature → Story → Test Case → Defect in an interactive D3 graph. Auto-maintained, filterable, and exportable to Excel for compliance. The automated RTM tool that eliminates manual traceability.
Trusted by QA leads and compliance teams who've eliminated manual traceability
Saved per sprint that used to go to manually updating traceability spreadsheets
Of requirement-to-test links maintained automatically — zero manual effort
To export a compliance-ready traceability report for any audit or release
The RTM that used to take 8 hours a sprint now takes zero
Research from the International Software Testing Qualifications Board found that teams maintaining manual traceability matrices spend an average of 6–10 hours per sprint keeping them up to date. WalnutAI eliminates this entirely — every story linked, every test case connected, every defect traced, updated automatically as the project evolves. Compliance audits that once required days of preparation now take one click.
See the full traceability chain in one interactive view
An interactive D3.js graph maps every Epic → Feature → User Story → Test Case → Defect relationship in your project. Color-coded nodes, drag-and-zoom navigation, and click-to-detail panels give you the full picture — and the ability to drill into any part of it — without switching tools.
Always current, maintained automatically
Stories imported from Jira or Azure DevOps, test cases generated or created manually, and defects logged against test runs are all linked automatically as your project evolves. There’s no matrix to maintain, no spreadsheet to update — the RTM reflects the truth of your project at all times.
Export to Excel for compliance audits in one click
When a release or audit requires documented evidence of requirements coverage, export the full matrix to Excel instantly. Filter by any Epic, Feature, or Story root before exporting to produce exactly the scope of traceability documentation you need.
