These notes come from a course attended by Adrian Mortimer on determining and describing requirements specifications. From the notes: What is a requirement? o A requirement is some aspect of a product's content or behaviour, which is necessary or desired by the customer o Functional requirements are things the product must do o Non-functional requirements are properties that the product must have, or constraints on the product o Each requirement has a fit criteria [sic] o The requirements are a statement of intent to make the investment in detailed analysis and design. The contents of these course notes are: 1. Do I need Requirements 2. The Requirements Process 3. Project Blastoff 4. Trawling for Rrequirements 5. Writing the Requirements (see also: <A HREF ="http://repository:13531/more/UI_Metadata/public/1/208">http://repository:13531/more/UI_Metadata/public/1/208</A> ) 6. The Quality Gateway 7.
