    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).
