Synopsis

A Practical Approach to Software Requirements using the Unified Process will provide an end-to-end process to ensure that requirements are correct, complete, consistent, and effectively documented. It will provide information on how to effectively gather requirements, how to present them to the user to ensure a complete understanding, and how to capture the requirements in software architecture. Gathering, analyzing, and specifying requirements are among the most important steps in building a quality software system. Yet, many software development teams do not accomplish these tasks very well. The resulting systems often do not meet customers' expectations and eventually require major rework. This book includes a discussion on how to use and document Use Cases and how to use storyboarding to reflect the requirements back to the user as well as a thorough discussion of Object Oriented modeling to include Class Diagrams, State Transition Diagrams, and Interaction Diagrams. The authors also provide a description of how to represent the Class Diagram in an IEEE standard Software Requirements Specification and a description of how to build a set of test cases based on the requirements. A case study to illustrate the use of this process.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

DANIEL R. WINDLE has extensive experience applying the object-oriented paradigm to all facets of software development. As Managing Director of Requirements Development at SIAC in New York City, he led the development of a requirements architecture for the specialist system on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. He has more than 20 years' experience in the IT industry.

L. RENE ABREO leads a team of requirements analysts developing requirements for major equity trading systems using UML and the Unified Process. Rene has participated in major projects as project/program manager, team lead, developer, requirements analyst, and test director.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Effective requirements development: An end-to-end process that works.

• How to build requirements that can easily be transformed into high-quality software
• Easy-to-apply, start-to-finish methodology based on the Unified Process
• Practical solutions for requirements gathering, analysis, specification, and maintenance

This book presents a systematic, easy-to-apply methodology for creating effective requirements. The authors present practical solutions for the full requirements lifecycle: gathering, analysis, specification, verification, and maintenance. Working in the context of the Unified Process, they cover process flows, present detailed diagrams, and offer insights that draw on their extraordinary mission-critical project experience, which ranges from the floor of the New York Stock Exchange to the U.S. Air Force's most advanced Command and Control Systems.

• The key characteristics of good software requirements
• Understanding the requirements analysis process and artifacts
• Building user requirements problem domains, actors, use cases, activity diagrams, and storyboarding
• Building the requirements architecture entities and events, class diagrams, state transition diagrams, and sequence diagrams
• Building the specifications software requirements, interface requirements, and verification
• Using the requirements architecture you've built

Whether you're an analyst, architect, developer, tester, manager, or software customer, this book will help you define requirements that precisely reflect your needs―and can be transformed into working software faster and more cost-effectively than ever before.
