Abstract
The software development process produces interdependent artifacts, including requirements, designs, code components, and test cases. Traceability records link these artifacts across stages to ensure that requirements are implemented in design, realized in code, and verified through testing. Maintaining such links is essential for quality, compliance, and efficient change management, but it is often time-consuming, and many existing tools lack comprehensive traceability support tailored for small projects. We present TraceCraft, a web-based platform designed to manage traceability and change tracking in alignment with ISO/IEC 29110, a standard widely adopted in Thailand to improve the quality of software in very small entities. TraceCraft streamlines artifact linkage, supports systematic verification and validation, and provides automated change impact tracking to maintain consistency across development stages. The platform offers visual indicators and detailed reports to highlight missing links, outdated items, and dependencies requiring attention, enabling teams to address potential issues early. In a usability study with nine practitioners in Thailand, TraceCraft achieved an average System Usability Scale (SUS) score of 73.17, indicating good usability and positive feedback, particularly for reducing the effort and complexity of maintaining ISO/IEC 29110-compliant traceability.
