Boness, K. D., Finkelstein, A. and Harrison, R. (2008) A lightweight technique for assessing risks in requirements analysis. IET Software, 2 (1). pp. 46-57. doi: 10.1049/iet-sen:20070068

Abstract/Summary

A simple and practical technique for assessing the risks, that is, the potential for error, and consequent loss, in software system development, acquired during a requirements engineering phase is described. The technique uses a goal-based requirements analysis as a framework to identify and rate a set of key issues in order to arrive at estimates of the feasibility and adequacy of the requirements. The technique is illustrated and how it has been applied to a real systems development project is shown. How problems in this project could have been identified earlier is shown, thereby avoiding costly additional work and unhappy users.
