Theme and Goals
-------------------
The objective of RET is explore the interaction of Requirements Engineering
(RE) and Testing, in research and industry, and the challenges that result from
this interaction. While much work has been done in the respective fields of
requirements engineering and testing, there exists much more than can be done to
understand the connection between RE and testing process.
We hope RET will provide a much needed forum for exchanging ideas and best
practices for aligning RE and testing, and in particular can help foster
industry-academia collaboration on this topic. Accordingly, we have planned to
invite an industry keynote and conduct an interactive session to map the
research area, along with traditional presentations of accepted papers.

Towards this, RET expects submissions exploring how to best align RE and
testing. This can include processes, practices, artifacts, methods, techniques,
tools and softer aspects like the communication between roles in the engineering
process. Submissions can vary from short position papers outlining observed
problems, to short papers employing case studies, experiments, experience
reports, etc. We particularly encourage submissions from industrial
practitioners or thus working with industrial partners.
