Requirements Validation Techniques practiced in industry : Studies of six companiesSaqi, Saqib Bashir, Ahmed, Sheraz January 2008 (has links)
Requirements validation is a critical phase of requirements engineering processes, which makes sure that requirements are correct, consistent, complete and accurate. Requirements validation is used in determining the right requirements, while verification determines that implementation is correct with respect to its requirements. The main objective of validation is to certify that requirement specification document is the acceptable description of the system, which is going to be implemented. Requirements validation techniques (RVTs) play pivotal role to detect possible defects in the requirements. RVTs can help in the completion of projects, within given schedule, budget and according to the desired functionality. The studies of six companies regarding requirements validation, is presented in this thesis. This study explores the requirements validation techniques that are presented in academia and practiced in industry as well. Interview studies are conducted in two countries, which is an attempt to find the usage of requirements validation techniques in both of the countries. The pros and cons of identified RVTs are discussed, along with it; the comparison of different RVTs with respect to the satisfaction level of specific RVT in terms of catching defects, time/schedule and cost is presented as well.

Requirements Validation Techniques : Factors Influencing themPEDDIREDDY, SANTOSH KUMAR REDDY, NIDAMANURI, SRI RAM January 2021 (has links)
Context: Requirement validation is a phase of the software development life cycle where requirements are validated to get rid of inconsistency, incompleteness. Stakeholders involved in the validation process to make requirements are suitable for the product. Requirement validation techniques are for validating the requirements. Selection of requirements validation techniques related to the factors that need to consider while validating requirements makes the validation process better. This paper is about the factors that influence the selection of requirements validation technique and analyzing the most critical factors. Objectives: Our research aim is to find the factors influencing the selection of requirements validation techniques and evaluating critical factor from the factors list. To achieve our goal, we are following these objectives. To get a list of validation techniques that are currently being used by organizations, and to enlist the factors that influence the requirements validation technique. Methods: To identify the factors influencing the selection of requirement validation techniques and evaluating the critical factors, we conducted both a literature review and survey. Results: From the literature review, two articles considered as our starter set, and through snowball sampling, a total of fifty-four articles were found relevant to the study. From the results of the literature review, we have formulated a questionnaire and conducted a survey. A total of thirty-three responses have gathered from the survey. The survey obtains the factors influencing the requirement validation techniques. Conclusions: The factors we got from the survey possess a mixed view like each factor has its critically in different aspects of validation. Selecting one critical factor is not possible during the selection of the requirements validation technique. So, we shortlisted the critical factors that have more influence in the selection of requirement validation techniques, Factors, Requirements validation techniques.

Using no-code tools within the requirements validation process with focus on web developmentMattsson, Hampus, Magnusson, Jonas January 2022 (has links)
No-code tools are a method of development to make it easier and faster for someone to create a simple or specific product regardless of prior programming experience. No-code tools are primarily used today to make ordinary applications or websites, for use as is, or to try out a business idea. In this paper we introduce the reader to the concept of no-code tools and if software engineering students should consider using no-code tools in conjunction with their studies in some form. We primarily focus on no-code tools related to web development. It is an area where there exist a lot of competitors which are often marketed online. The requirements validation process within software development has a prototyping technique which allows the customer and endusers to experiment with a functional prototype. However, this comes at the cost of additional effort, which no-code could possibly negate through its nature of quickly creating functional applications. We investigate and see if no-code tools can be viable within the requirements validation process by using it for prototyping. We find that no-code tools’ limitations do not prevent it from being a viable way of both allowing the developers andcustomer/end-users to quick and easy develop functional prototypes. However, this fact varies depending on the requirements and the used no-code tool as limitations vary.

Comparative Selection of Requirements Validation Techniques Based on Industrial Survey / Jämförande Val av kravvalidering baserad på Industrial SurveySulehri, Latif January 2010 (has links)
In software engineering the requirements validation has very core importance. The requirements validation very helpful to judge that software requirements specification (SRS) is complete and free of bugs. The requirements validation is a assurance that the software requirements document is free of unwanted requirements and completely consistent. In order to remove inconsistency, detect defects and make the software requirements document fully functional the requirements validation is key factor. All possible requirements validation techniques available in academia such requirements reviews , requirements prototyping, requirements testing and viewpoint-oriented requirements validation are explained properly in this thesis report. In a very readable and understandable way the thesis presents all pros and cons of these requirements validation techniques practiced in different software companies in Sweden and available in academia. This report explains all possible advantages and issues related with these RVTs. In order to judge the best performance of these RVTs and to make their comparison I used a proper channel. I have designed a very effective survey questionnaire with the help of my colleges and literature review. To make creative comparison I conduct interviews and send survey questionnaire to different people working in requirements engineering departments in different software industries in Sweden. Finally the satisfaction levels of different software industries with these requirements validation techniques presents in this thesis report. These variables such as defect detection, time and cost are used to measure the satisfaction levels. / I Software Engineering kraven validering har en mycket central betydelse. Den kravvalidering very helpful att bedöma att Kravspecifikation (SRS) är klar och felfria. Kraven validering är en garanti för att programvaran kravdokument är fri från oönskade krav och helt konsekvent. För att undanröja inkonsekvens, upptäcka brister och göra programvaran kravdokument fullt funktionella kraven validering är viktig faktor. Alla möjliga kravvalidering tekniker inom den akademiska sådana krav recensioner, krav prototyper, provning och synpunkt-orienterade kravvalidering förklaras ordentligt i denna avhandling rapport. I ett mycket lättläst och begripligt sätt avhandling presenterar alla fördelar och nackdelar med dessa krav validera metoder praktiseras i olika mjukvaruföretag i Sverige och finns i den akademiska världen. Denna rapport förklarar alla möjliga fördelar och frågor kring dessa RVTs. För att bedöma de bästa resultaten i dessa RVTs och göra en jämförelse av dem använde jag en riktig kanal. Jag har skapat en mycket effektiv frågeformulär med hjälp av min högskolor och litteraturgenomgång. Skapa kreativa jämförelse jag intervjua och skicka frågeformuläret till olika personer som arbetar inom tekniska kraven för dessa avdelningar i olika programvaruföretag i Sverige. Slutligen tillfredsställande nivåer av olika programvaruföretag med dessa krav validering teknik presenteras i denna avhandling rapport. Dessa variabler såsom Upptäcka, tid och kostnader används för att mäta tillfredsställande nivåer. / Author: Latif Hussain Sulehri E-mail: latifsulehry@hotmail.com Phone: +46 704 917 140

[en] REQUIREMENTS VERIFICATION AND VALIDATION: NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING AND SOFTWARE AGENTS / [pt] VERIFICAÇÃO E VALIDAÇÃO EM REQUISITOS: PROCESSAMENTO DA LINGUAGEM NATURAL E AGENTESMIRIAM SAYAO 30 November 2007 (has links)
[pt] No processo de desenvolvimento do software, atividades
relacionadas ao
Processo de Requisitos envolvem elicitação, modelagem,
verificação e validação
dos requisitos. O uso da linguagem natural no registro dos
requisitos facilita a
comunicação entre os participantes do processo, além de
possibilitar que clientes e
usuários validem requisitos sem necessitar de conhecimento
extra. Por outro lado,
na economia globalizada atual, o desenvolvimento de
software por equipes
geograficamente distribuídas está se tornando uma norma.
Nesse cenário,
atividades de verificação e validação de requisitos para um
software de média ou
alta complexidade podem envolver o tratamento de centenas
ou milhares de
requisitos. Com essa ordem de complexidade é importante que
o engenheiro de
software tenha apoio computacional para o desempenho
adequado das atividades
de aferição de qualidade. Neste trabalho estamos propondo
uma estratégia que
combina técnicas de processamento da linguagem natural
(PLN) e agentes de
software para apoiar as atividades de análise dos
requisitos. Geramos visões
textuais ou gráficas de grupos de requisitos relacionados;
visões apóiam a análise
de completude, a identificação de duplicidades e de
dependências entre requisitos.
Utilizamos técnicas de análise de conteúdo para apoiar a
identificação de
omissões em requisitos não funcionais. Também propomos uma
estratégia para a
construção ou atualização do léxico da aplicação,
utilizando técnicas de PLN.
Utilizamos agentes de software para implementar serviços
que incorporam as
estratégias referidas, e também para atuar como
representantes dos participantes
do projeto em desenvolvimento. / [en] In software development process, initial activities can
involve requirements elicitation, modeling and analysis
(verification and validation). The use of natural language
in the register of the requirements facilitates the
communication among stakeholders, besides offering
possibilities to customers and users to validate
requirements without extra knowledge. On the other hand, in
the current global economy, software development for teams
geographically distributed is becoming a rule. In this
scenario, requirements verification and validation for
medium or high complexity software can involve the
treatment of hundreds or even thousand requirements. With
this complexity order it is important to provide
computational support for the software engineer execute
quality activities. In this work we propose a strategy
which combines natural language processing (NLP) techniques
and software agents to support analysis activities. We have
generated textual or graphical visions from groups of
related requirements; visions help completeness analysis,
identification of duplicities and dependences among
requirements. We use content analysis techniques to support
the identification of omissions in nonfunctional
requirements. Also, we propose a strategy to construct the
lexicon, using NLP techniques. We use software agents to
implement web services that incorporate the related
strategies, and also agents to act as personal assistants
for stakeholders of the software project.
