Learn proven, real-world techniques for specifying software requirements
with this practical reference. It details 30 requirement "patterns"
offering realistic examples for situation-specific guidance for building
effective software requirements. Each pattern explains what a
requirement needs to convey, offers potential questions to ask, points
out potential pitfalls, suggests extra requirements, and other advice.
This book also provides guidance on how to write other kinds of
information that belong in a requirements specification, such as
assumptions, a glossary, and document history and references, and how
to structure a requirements specification. A disturbing proportion of
computer systems are judged to be inadequate; many are not even
delivered; more are late or over budget. Studies consistently show one
of the single biggest causes is poorly defined requirements: not
properly defining what a system is for and what it's supposed to do.
Even a modest contribution to improving requirements offers the prospect
of saving businesses part of a large sum of wasted investment. This
guide emphasizes this important requirement need--determining what a
software system needs to do before spending time on development.
Expertly written, this book details solutions that have worked in the
past, with guidance for modifying patterns to fit individual
needs--giving developers the valuable advice they need for building
effective software requirements
