Abstract:
It is difficult to identify whether quality requirements are defined adequately or not, but there are few methods to support this kind of requirements analysis. In this paper, we propose a method based on software quality spectrum, that shows a ratio of quality characteristics embedded in a software engineering artifact, such as a requirements specification, a manual and so on. We assume similar kinds of software systems have similar spectrum, thus we can identify the adequacy of quality requirements for a new system by using spectrum of already existing similar systems. We confirmed the assumption above by analyzing actual software systems, i.e., web browsers and drawing tools.
