Mastering the requirements process


This course is based on the book by Suzanne and James Robertson „Mastering the requirements process“. Participanct will obtain their copy from last edition.



Requirements are the most misunderstood part of systems development, and yet the most crucial. Software can solve almost any problem. The problem is that we don't always understand what the problem is. Understanding the problem—the real problem—is the role of the requirements process. 

This workshop presents a complete process for uncovering the real requirements, testing them for correctness, and recording them clearly, comprehensibly and unambiguously. This requirements process starts with the business—for it is only within the business that you can discover the real needs. When you know the real needs, it is possible to determine the system that best serves those needs, and to specify, completely and innovatively, the requirements to get the right system built. 
This workshop shows you how to precisely define the scope of the business problem, to discover and involve the appropriate stakeholders, to use today’s techniques to learn what the business really needs, to innovate and find better ways to do the work, to communicate effectively and to write testable, unambiguous
requirements.

You Will Learn How to:
 
  • Determine the real needs of your client
  • Uncover the essence of the business
  • Recommend a system to improve it
  • Learn diverse elicitation techniques to uncover the real requirements
  • Write requirements that are complete, traceable, and testable
  • Write agile stories
  • Understand the role of the business analyst in agile projects 
  • Understand the need for (and how to write) both functional and non-functional requirements
  • Precisely define the scope of the project
  • Discover the stakeholders and keep them involved
  • Use prototypes and sketches to discover hidden needs
  • Get the requirements quickly, and incrementally
  • Learn state of the art requirements techniques
  • Discover the right requirements



Is This for Me?

Yes, if you want to be involved in delivering the right systems—the ones that get used. Your title is probably business analyst, systems analyst, product owner, project leader or manager, requirements engineer, consultant, product or program manager or similar. Team members on agile projects benefit from understanding how requirements are done in agile projects.
