Process to enhance the quality of software requirement specification document
Syed Waqas Ali, Qazi Arbab Ahmed, Imran Shafi · 2018
The failure and success of any software mainly depends on a technical document known as Software Requirement Specification (SRS) document, as it contains all requirements and features of the product. In the past, many developments had been done to improve the quality of the SRS, with respect to different attributes of the product, but the product success rate is not satisfactory and the room for improvement is still there. We have developed a different approach to resolve those issues. Our methodology consist of four processes i.e. Parsing Requirement (PR), Requirement Mapping using Matrix (RMM), Addition of Requirements in SRS template and Third Party Inspection. Requirement Engineering Process will provide the required inputs to PR after the implementation of its ontology rules completion of requirements will be achieved. RMM will be generated to minimize ambiguities and incorrectness with concerns of all stakeholders. Outputs of the previous processes will be added to IEEE standard format. A third party inspection will be conducted to check the requirements of the client and SRS. After inspecting SRS using inspection models and assigning Total Quality Score (TQS) third party will submit a detailed report to team of Requirement Engineers (RE). This practice will not only identify the problem but will solve the issue on its way.
