Abstract
Requirements are the precursor to all other software development phases, namely, software design, software construction and testing. When the end result of the software development activity is a COTS (Commercial Off The Shelf) product, we term requirements as “product specifications”. When the end result of the software development activity is to deliver the product to a single client in a project scenario, we use the term requirements. In either case, the activity of managing the requirements is the same.
