Abstract. The potential benefits of traceability are well known, as well as the impracticability of maintaining traceability links manually. Recently, Information Retrieval (IR) techniques have been proposed in order to support the software engineer during the traceability link identification process. Clearly, a research method/tool has more change to be transferred to practitioner if its usefulness is investigated through empirical user studies and it can be integrated within a commercial and widely used CASE tool. In this paper we try to achieve this result showing how IBM Requisite Pro can be enriched with IR-based traceability recovery features. 1
