The Requirements Process Chart (PDF  Adobe PDF File) The Requirements Management Process is a structured approach to the capture, organization and management of Business Requirements.

Requirements Templates

This document is a generic Requirements Analysis Scope Template for use in the analysis phase of a project. It provides guidance and template material which is intended to assist the relevant management or Analyst, whether client or supplier, in producing an Analysis Phase Scope Statement document.

This document is a generic User Requirement document for use in a project. It provides guidance and template material which is intended to assist the relevant management or technical staff, whether client or supplier, in producing a project specific Requirement document.

  • The IEEE Guide to Software Specification - (PDF  Adobe PDF File) The content and qualities of a good Software Requirement Specification (SRS) are described and several sample SRS outlines are presented. This recommended practice is aimed at specifying requirements of software to be developed but can also be applied to assist in the selection of in-house and commercial software products.

Requirements Tools

This site provides access to various software tools developed by the NASA Software Assurance Technology Center (SATC). After going through a short registration process, you will have the ability to download all tools available on the site. Information collected during the registration process is used for statistical analysis only by SATC staff and will not be shared with other parties. A valid email account is required for registration; However, once the registration process is completed, you will not be contacted via email unless you opt-in to receive product news and update information from the SATC.

ARM: Automated Requirements Measurement Tool (2.1) ARM is an early life cycle tool for assessing requirements that are specified in natural language.

RUT: Requirements Use case Tool (0.1) RUT provides assistance to managers, customers, and developers in assessing the quality of use cases and serves as a database repository for requirements developed as use cases.

Testing Templates

This Test Plan Template is meant to be a guideline, not an absolute dictation of form. You should add or modify sections as appropriate for your project.

You should add or modify sections as appropriate for your project.

The Test Progress Report Template can be used to report Plan -vs- Actual Progress of Test Case Creation, Test Case Execution and Defects Found during Testing.

Test Management & Defect Tracking Tools

Test Case Manager (TCM) is a tool designed for software test engineers to organize test cases for storage and execution logging. Test cases are written up in a standard format and saved into the system. Test cases can be organized by level (Smoke, Critical Path, Acceptance Criteria, Suggested), by area (GUI breakdown, installation, data, etc.), by status (pass, fail, untested, etc.), or other breakdown criteria. Once test cases are built, testers use TCM to track and report success or failure of test cases. TCM provides an unlimited number of central, multi-user databases, each of which will support an entire test team. TCM is intended for use by small to midsize software development companies or organizations. TCM was designed to be easy to learn and use. Most features are implemented as intuitive wizards for users to step through.

Buggit manages bugs and features throughout the software development process. Testers, developers, and managers can all benefit greatly by using Buggit. It enables them to enter and edit bugs/issues, perform quick lookups of existing issues, print from a wide variety of powerful reports and graphs (see screen shots at PBSys webpage - www.pb-sys.com), administer new bug project databases, and much more. Buggit provides an unlimited number of central, multi-user databases, each of which will support multiple concurrent users in the development team.

Checklists

Heuristic evaluation (Nielsen and Molich, 1990; Nielsen 1994) is a usability engineering method for finding the usability problems in a user interface design so that they can be attended to as part of an iterative design process. This checklist is for evaluators to examine the system interface and judge its compliance with recognized usability principles (the "heuristics").

Other Templates

  1. Taxonomy-Based Risk Identification - This report describes a method for facilitating the systematic and repeatable identification of risks associated with the development of a software dependent project. This report focuses on risk identification and is based on the simple premise that without effective and repeatable risk identification methods, truly effective risk management is impossible.
  2. Project Change Request Form - Used by any stakeholder to request a change in the project. When it applies to scope, budget, schedule, or quality, a formal Change Control Process is invoked.
  3. Communications Plan - Details who requires what information, when, in what format, how it will be delivered, and by whom.
  4. Meeting Minutes - A convenient format for recording minutes from Project team and other meetings.
  5. Monthly Status Report - Used to report project status. Provides a consistent format, including an Executive Summary section, for enhanced communication with upper management.
  6. Simple Scope Statement Lite - A simpler Scope document for Tier 1 ("Small") projects. Describes all of the work – and only the work – required to complete the project.
  7. Use Case Template - Used to document functional requirements of the project that can be expressed as Use Cases.
  8. Lessons Learned - Record commentary regarding Lessons Learned throughout the project in this form.
