Abstract

Agile methodologies are widely used in software industry, as agile results in efficiency, accuracy and effectiveness in less time. Agile has been adopted among different organization, having team members of diverse cultures with different set of working habits. The acceptance level of these diverse habits is largely governed by the client, who is one of the stakeholders, whose job is to provide requirements to an organization. These requirements may come in different languages as client usually give the work to that organization where cost is less and in less time, good quality work is done. Understanding different language requirement is a tedious task for an organization. Also, requirements keep on changing with time from client end. In this paper, a technique is proposed that may be used to understand requirements in a better manner and further, prioritization of test cases is performed using noun and verb approach.
