About this download

Connect a small requirement to its source, rationale and planned check. Use the record to review changes without losing the reason a requirement exists.

Use the files

  1. Choose PDF for printing or DOCX for editing in Word or another compatible document application.
  2. Save a working copy with a clear filename and version before making entries.
  3. Follow the instructions and use the fictional example to understand the level of detail.
  4. Complete your record and apply the review questions before relying on it.

Scope and responsible use

Use a fictional request or information you have permission to use. A completed row does not establish that a requirement is agreed, tested or compliant. Keep those statuses separate.

Confirm that the source supports the wording, the planned check is understandable and the status does not imply a test that has not occurred. Update both wording and linked evidence when the requirement changes.

These are original RDE practice aids. They do not certify professional competence, establish approval or guarantee employment or business results. Keep completed records containing sensitive information in an authorised location. Downloading a file does not submit your entries to RDE.
