Hi Soheil, It means that the software (or software feature) corresponds to an item in a list or known set of customer requirements. For example, a customer may need a certain type of report to be provided by the software package. This specific report may be assigned a requirement reference number, which is then traceable.

OK then, but does it mean that the software only implements the user requirements and have no other capability?

Hi Soheil
I would need to see more of the context of this text to be able to determine that. It would depend on the size of the software package and its features.

Hi Soheili
If it is about software testing, my best guess is that the new (or changed) software features are traceable to customer requirements.
