Broadly, functional requirements define what a system is supposed to do and non-functional requirements define how a system is supposed to be.Functional requirements are usually in the form of "system shall do <requirement>", an individual action or part of the system, perhaps explicitly in the sense of a mathematical function, a black box description input, output, process and control ...
Within systems engineering, quality attributes are realized non-functional requirements used to evaluate the performance of a system. These are sometimes named architecture characteristics, or "ilities" after the suffix many of the words share. They are usually architecturally significant requirements that require architects' attention. [1]
SNAP is the Software Non-functional Assessment Process. While Function Points measure the functional requirements by sizing the data flow through a software application, IFPUG's SNAP measures the non-functional requirements. The SNAP model consists of four categories and fourteen sub-categories to measure the non-functional requirements.
A software requirements specification (SRS) is a description of a software system to be developed.It is modeled after the business requirements specification.The software requirements specification lays out functional and non-functional requirements, and it may include a set of use cases that describe user interactions that the software must provide to the user for perfect interaction.
Operational acceptance test (OAT) criteria (regardless of using agile, iterative, or sequential development) are defined in terms of functional and non-functional requirements; covering key quality attributes of functional stability, portability, and reliability.
FURPS is an acronym representing a model for classifying software quality attributes (functional and non-functional requirements): Functionality - capability (size and generality of feature set), reusability (compatibility, interoperability, portability), security (safety and exploitability)
Requirements analysis is critical to the success or failure of systems or software projects. [3] The requirements should be documented, actionable, measurable, testable, [4] traceable, [4] related to identified business needs or opportunities, and defined to a level of detail sufficient for system design.
Before requirements can be analyzed, modeled, or specified they must be gathered through an elicitation process. Requirements elicitation is a part of the requirements engineering process, usually followed by analysis and specification of the requirements. Commonly used elicitation processes are the stakeholder meetings or interviews. [2]
