Software Requirement Specification

What is the purpose of a software requirement specification?

• To clearly define the functional and non-functional requirements of the software to be developed.

• To design the user interface of the software

• To market and sell the software to potential customers

• To test the software for bugs and errors

What are the key components of a software requirement specification?

• Hardware requirements, user interface, and database design

• Functional requirements, non-functional requirements, user stories, use cases, and system requirements

• Project timeline, budget, and team members

• Software testing, bug tracking, and project management

Why is it important to gather and document software requirements?

• To waste time and resources

• To clearly define the scope of the project and provide a roadmap for development.

• To create unnecessary obstacles

• To make the project more confusing

What are the different types of software requirements?

• Functional requirements, non-functional requirements, and technical requirements

• Functional requirements, operational requirements, and user requirements

• System requirements, performance requirements, and user interface requirements

• Hardware requirements, user requirements, and design requirements

What is the difference between functional and non-functional requirements?

• Functional requirements describe what the system should do, while non-functional requirements describe how the system should perform.

• Functional requirements describe how the system should perform, while non-functional requirements describe what the system should do.

• Functional requirements are optional, while non-functional requirements are mandatory.

• Functional requirements are related to hardware, while non-functional requirements are related to software.

How can stakeholders be involved in the software requirement specification process?

• By ignoring their input and feedback

• By sending them a newsletter

• By conducting a bake-off competition

• By conducting interviews, surveys, workshops, and reviews to gather their input and feedback.

What are some common challenges in creating a software requirement specification?

• Writing the requirements in a foreign language

• Not involving stakeholders in the process

• Identifying and documenting all the necessary requirements, managing changes in requirements, ensuring clarity and consistency in requirements, and balancing conflicting requirements

• Including irrelevant requirements

What is the role of a business analyst in the software requirement specification process?

• Testing the software for bugs

• Gathering and analyzing software requirements, documenting them, and ensuring alignment with business goals

• Writing code for the software

• Managing the marketing strategy for the software

How can software requirement changes be managed and documented?

• By making changes without documentation

• Through a formal change control process

• By verbally communicating the changes

• By ignoring the changes

What are the best practices for writing a clear and concise software requirement specification?

• Ignoring stakeholders' input and feedback

• Involving stakeholders, using clear and unambiguous language, avoiding technical jargon, providing examples and diagrams, and ensuring that the requirements are testable and measurable.

• Providing vague and ambiguous requirements

• Using technical jargon and complex language
