Software Requirements Specification (SRS)
Software Requirements Specification (SRS)
SRS shows what the software is supposed to do as well as how it is supposed to perform. It is the result of the above analyses
Includes: User Classes, Scope, Constraints, Functional & Nonfunctional Requirements;
- can also include Technical Requirements, Operating Environment, etc
Purpose: Use to communicate to stake-holders and estimate cost & get sign-off from client and as a basis for design, development and evaluation of the software solution.
