To properly support testing, configuration management may involve ensuring the following: that all test items are uniquely identified, version controlled, tracked for changes, and related to each other. That all items of testware are uniquely identified, version controlled, tracked for changes, related to each other, and related to versions of the test items so that traceability can be maintained through the test process. And that all identified documents and software items are referenced unambiguously in test documentation. During test planning, configuration management procedures and infrastructure or tools should be identified and implemented.
