Requirements Engineering in Agile Software Development
نویسنده
چکیده
Finding out, analyzing, documenting, and checking requirements are important activities in all development approaches, including agile development. This paper discusses problems concerned with the conduction of requirements engineering activities in agile software development processes and suggests some improvements to solve some challenges caused by agile requirements engineering practices in large projects, like properly handling and identifying sensitive (including nonfunctional) requirements, documenting and managing requirements documentation, keeping agile teams in contact with outside customers. The paper also discusses the requirements traceability problem in agile software development and the relationships between the traceability and refactoring processes and their impact on each other.

Requirements are critical for the success of software projects. Requirements are practically difficult to produce, as the hardest stage of building a software system is to decide what the system should do. Moreover, requirements errors are expensive to fix in the later phases of the software development life cycle. The rapidly changing business environment is highly challenging traditional Requ...
