  The RET (Requirements Engineering and Testing) workshop series provides a
meeting point for researchers and practitioners from the two separate fields of
Requirements Engineering (RE) and Testing. The goal is to improve the
connection and alignment of these two areas through an exchange of ideas,
challenges, practices, experiences and results. The long term aim is to build a
community and a body of knowledge within the intersection of RE and Testing,
i.e. RET. The 2nd workshop was held in co-location with ICSE 2015 in Florence,
Italy. The workshop continued in the same interactive vein as the 1st one and
included a keynote, paper presentations with ample time for discussions, and a
group exercise. For true impact and relevance this cross-cutting area requires
contribution from both RE and Testing, and from both researchers and
practitioners. A range of papers were presented from short experience papers to
full research papers that cover connections between the two fields. One of the
main outputs of the 2nd workshop was a categorization of the presented workshop
papers according to an initial definition of the area of RET which identifies
the aspects RE, Testing and coordination effect.
