Study Notes
Software Requirements Engineering (SRE)
- SRE is a structured approach to gathering, analyzing, documenting, validating, and managing software requirements throughout the software development lifecycle.
- The framework improves communication among stakeholders, ensuring alignment with business objectives and enhancing final product quality.
SRE Framework Components
- SRE Framework: The overall structure and methodology for SRE.
- System Context: A high-level representation of the system's environment and its interactions with external entities. It defines system boundaries and identifies key external elements.
- Core Activities: Essential tasks within the SRE process, including documentation, elicitation, and negotiation.
- Requirements Artefacts: Documents, models, and resources used to capture, describe, and manage software requirements. Examples include SRS (Software Requirements Specification), FR (Functional Requirements), NFR (Non-Functional Requirements) and C (Constraints).
System Context
- System context encompasses aspects influencing the system, such as people (stakeholders), hardware, documents (e.g., standards, laws), and processes (business processes).
- A Context Diagram is a visual tool used to represent system context. This diagram depicts external entities and their interactions with the system. Example: Supplier, Retail Distributor, Supply Chain Management System, Wholesale Distributor.
Core Activities
- Requirements Elicitation: Gathering requirements from stakeholders.
- Requirements Negotiation: Discussing and agreeing on requirements.
- Requirements Documentation: Recording and organizing the requirements.
- Requirements Validation: Verifying that requirements are accurate and complete.
- Requirements Management: Tracking changes and maintaining requirements throughout the process.
Requirements Artefacts
- They are the foundation for system development, providing shared understanding among stakeholders, developers, and testers.
- They include documents like SRS (Software Requirements Specification), FR (Functional Requirements), and NFR (Non-Functional Requirements).
