Transparency remains a new and emerging concept in software engineering that the stakeholders of a software system, especially developers, must deal with during the software engineering process. One of the transparency concerns is the transparency of software products and processes. This paper proposes a definition of transparency and stakeholders’ transparency requirements relating to software artefacts and the processes that birth them. The requirements were elicited based on a well-defined systematic literature review strategy. The proposed requirements would enable the evaluation of the transparency of SDLC products and processes and their improvement towards achieving effective communication, software maintainability, and stakeholders’ productivity.
