Kattavuustauluja

Kattavuustauluja, a Finnish term, translates to "coverage tables" or "scope tables" in English. These tables are a fundamental tool in various fields, primarily in software development, testing, and project management, to visualize and track the extent to which specific requirements, functionalities, or areas have been addressed or implemented.

In software testing, kattavuustauluja are often used to map test cases against requirements or code modules. This helps testers identify gaps in their testing strategy, ensuring that all critical aspects of the software are covered. The table might list requirements in one column and corresponding test cases in another, indicating whether each requirement is tested, partially tested, or not tested. This systematic approach helps in assessing the thoroughness of the testing process and identifying areas that may need further attention.

Beyond testing, kattavuustauluja can be employed in project management to track the progress of different project components or features. They can serve as a checklist, showing which tasks are completed, in progress, or yet to be started, providing a clear overview of the project's scope and its current state. In documentation, they might be used to ensure that all aspects of a product or service are adequately documented. The primary purpose of a kattavuustaulu is to provide a structured and easily understandable representation of coverage, facilitating informed decision-making and effective management of resources.
