One of the core disciplines during the development phase of a product is requirements engineering. This process is very time-consuming since every functionality must be defined in a single requirement that has to follow certain rules.
Project managers or developers often go through multiple iterations and many discussions throughout the creation of the requirements to ensure that the quality of a certain specification matches the needs of every stakeholder.
Neglecting requirements engineering can lead to communication problems between the different parties within the development process. Weak requirements are a threat to the success of the project. Therefore, many projects rely on specialists like requirements engineers to define well-written specifications.
reQlab eases the process of generating your requirements and reduces the iterations and discussions to clarify the meaning or understanding of specifications. reQlab gives you the benefit of both worlds – understandable and functionally accurate requirements for every stakeholder.
