Impact analysis of volatility and security on requirement defects during software development process

摘要

The production of high quality software is one of the major challenges of any software organization. It is essential to develop quality artifacts at every phase of software development since quality is not a state and is a continual process. Requirement analysis is deemed to be the most significant activity which influences the acceptance and thereby the success level of the project. This paper provides an empirical analysis of several projects carried out in a leading product based software industry in order to analyze the significance of requirement analysis during software development process. Subsequently, an impact analysis of two of the quality influencing attributes namely volatility and security on requirements are also provided. The study indicates a dire need for introduction of quality metrics and polices towards realization of flawless requirement specifications.
