Measuring Requirements Testing

Theodore Hammer, Linda H. Rosenberg, Lenore Huffman, Lawrence E. Hyatt

Abstract

Requirements are written to specify the functionality of a completed software system.Software systems are often released in segments called builds, each one adding new functionality and satisfying an additional set of requirements.New software requirements tools are allowing quality assurance engineers to develop and use new metrics to assist them in evaluating the relationships of requirements to tests, thus ensuring the required functionality in the new system.NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center is applying new tools and technology to measure the effectiveness of requirements testing.This paper discusses an effort that uses project data to demonstrate metrics effectiveness.
