Test Gap Analysis

Find test obligations that are not sufficiently protected by test intent or execution evidence across requirements, risks, changes, defects, and test assets. Produce actionable TG-## gaps. This is not a replacement for a traceability matrix, test-case review, or test execution.

When to Use

• Use it to determine which requirements, risks, behaviors, or failure modes lack a test intent or evidence.
• Use it to find orphan tests, stale evidence, unverified execution, low-value duplicates, and high-risk uncovered obligations.
• Use it when inputs are incomplete but a bounded gap register and evidence questions are still useful.

Do not use it only to write test cases, build a complete RT-##/TC-## matrix, execute tests, or accept residual risk for a Human.

Output Format Options

• Use Markdown by default; when a table, CSV, or JSON is requested, preserve the same evidence, status, impact, owner, and validation fields.
• Do not present a structured format or static inventory as execution, pass, approval, or release evidence.
