As of November 1st version 2.0 of the Syllabus “IREB Certified Professional for requirement engineering – Foundation Level” is valid. Examinations will bw based on this version. It can be downloaded here: |
|
| Requirements engineering as the first step of system development crucially influences the success of the development project. | |
| The four core disciplines of requirements engineering are: | |
| elicitation | documentation |
| verification and validation | management |
| Requirements engineering is a core discipline in system development. A number of other disciplines rely on the deliverables created in requirements engineering.
The crucial role of requirements engineering is clear from the annual report of the Standish Group, “The Scope of Software Development Project Failures”. About half of all projects examined in the report fail to achieve their set goals because of a lack of requirements engineering. |
|
| Requirements are a main source in system development for: |
|
| Requirements document the common understanding and knowledge about a system shared by all participants involved in the system development. | |
| Professionalism in requirements engineering avoid defects in system analysis.
Professionalism in requirements engineering establishes a structured proceeding from project idea to a valuable set of requirements. Quality characteristics are defined for a single requirement as well as for the requirements specification on a whole. |
