(Project Sponsor) FRs and NFRs 2.1 What is FRs and NFRs Functional Requirements (FRs) are specific capabilities or features that a system must possess to satisfy its intended purpose They describe what the system should and can be objectively verified or tested FRs are typically focused on the system's functionalities and behavior Example FRs for an online shopping website: o o o o o The system will allow users to create an account The system will provide search functionality for users to find products The system will allow users to add products to a shopping cart The system will support different payment methods for users to complete their purchases The system will send order confirmation emails to users after successful purchases Non-Functional Requirements (NFRs) define the qualities or characteristics that a system should possess, typically addressing aspects such as performance, security, usability, and reliability NFRs are not directly related to the system's functionalities but focus on how well the system performs and behaves Example NFRs for an online shopping website: o o o o o Performance: The system should load product pages within two seconds Security: The system should encrypt sensitive user data, such as passwords and payment information Usability: The system's user interface should be intuitive and easy to navigate Reliability: The system should have an uptime of at least 99% to minimize downtime and disruptions Scalability: The system should be able to handle a high volume of simultaneous user requests during peak times 2.2 Identifying FRs and NFRs of TuneSource Project Based on the given information, we can identify the following Function Requirements (FRs) and NonFunction Requirements (NFRs) for the Tune Source project: Functional Requirements (FRs): Online Catalog: Develop an online catalog that allows customers to search for CDs E-commerce Functionality: Enable customers to purchase CDs through the website Search Functionality: Implement a search feature that allows customers to search for specific artists, albums, genres, etc User Accounts: Provide the option for customers to create user accounts for easier future purchases and personalized recommendations Payment Processing: Integrate a secure payment gateway to process customer payments Order Tracking: Allow customers to track the status of their orders, including shipping information and delivery updates Non-Functional Requirements (NFRs): Performance: Ensure that the website loads quickly and provides a responsive user experience Security: Implement robust security measures to protect customer data and prevent unauthorized access Reliability: Ensure high uptime and minimal downtime for the website to prevent disruptions in sales Usability: Design the website interface to be user-friendly, intuitive, and easy to navigate Compatibility: Ensure compatibility with various web browsers and operating systems Accessibility: Make the website accessible to users with disabilities by adhering to accessibility standards Performance Monitoring: Implement tools to monitor website performance, track metrics, and identify areas for improvement These FRs and NFRs provide a basis for developing and implementing the Tune Source project to meet the needs of customers and ensure a successful online presence for the company 2.3 Discussing relationship between FRs and NFRs Systems need both functional requirements and non-functional requirements to be usable Functional requirements define how the system must work and non-functional requirements detail how it should perform Without functional requirements, the system will not work Without at least some non-functional requirements being met to a certain level, users will become frustrated Documenting functional requirements and non-functional requirements helps to avoid disappointment with a new system It is also important in keeping the project on track, to budget and delivered on time Documenting requirements is also more likely to lead to greater satisfaction with the end product for both business stakeholders and end users I Discussing the techniques would be used to obtain the requirements (P5.b) Describing techniques would be used Joint Application Development (JAD) is a process in which business information is gathered for the development of new information technology systems or to improve user involvement or develop and improve quality in systems In this technique IT, specialists and business users collaborate in discussion, project management and learning groups, talking about the new information system With the participation of both parties, it is possible to develop and solve the requirements of the new software system in an easier way The meetings can be hours, days or weeks, depending on the intensity of the workshops Individual interviews with stakeholders, such as Carly Edwards (Project Sponsor), Megan Taylor (Cofounder), and customers, can provide deeper insights into their specific needs and expectations These interviews can be conducted in person, over the phone, or through video conferencing The interviewer should prepare a set of open-ended questions to prompt stakeholders to provide detailed responses For example, questions can be focused on understanding the desired features, user experience, and specific functionalities of the digital music download system Through interviews, stakeholders can express their perspectives and provide valuable input for the requirements gathering process User observation should be planned to ensure that all elements are constant surrounding the observation This will assist in uncertainty, and the consultant can focus on the user and assist in knowing what to look for The analyst will not be distracted and record, or note, irrelevant issues The more useful information gathered, the less time it will take to the analyst to dissect and evaluate afterwards Timing of the observation can also prove relevant when planning For optimal results, the consultant should schedule three different periods of observation: low, normal, and peak times This may prove helpful in because the user may interact with the system differently during different times The consultant will take into consideration the differences in times time settings and use it to obtain to construct better requirements to assist in all three times When observing the user, there are two approaches the consultant can take, passive or active Demonstrating how to collect requirements based on chosen technique I would choose JAD and interview techniques to collect requirements based on the chosen technique Joint Application Development (JAD): a Plan the JAD session: Identify the key stakeholders to include in the session, such as Carly Edwards (Project Sponsor), Megan Taylor (Co-founder), and representatives from the development team Set a date, time, and location for the session Prepare the agenda, including specific topics and objectives to be discussed b Conduct the JAD session: Start the session by introducing the purpose and goals of the session, emphasizing the importance of collaborative participation Encourage stakeholders to share their ideas, perspectives, and requirements Facilitate discussions to clarify and resolve any conflicts or ambiguities in the requirements Summarize the collected requirements at the end of the session and ensure that all stakeholders agree on the documented requirements Interviews: a Identify interview participants: Determine the key stakeholders to interview, including Carly Edwards (Project Sponsor) and Megan Taylor (Co-founder) Consider conducting interviews with a sample of customers to gather their perspectives as well b Prepare interview questions: What are the essential features that you envision in the digital music download system? How you imagine the user experience when searching for and purchasing digital music downloads? Are there any specific requirements or capabilities that you consider critical for the success of the system? c Conduct the interviews: Start the interviews by explaining the purpose and assuring stakeholders that their input is valuable Ask the prepared interview questions, giving stakeholders enough time to provide detailed SRS (Software Requirements Specification) for the Tune Source 3.1 Introduction Purposes Sales Growth: By offering customers the convenience of online shopping, Tune Source aims to increase its annual sales The existing reputation of Tune Source as the go-to place for rare audio recordings will be leveraged to attract customers to the online platform Website Maintenance: The project includes the ongoing maintenance and management of the website The IT department at Tune Source, along with the assistance of the Internet Service Provider (ISP), will ensure the smooth functioning of the website and address any technical issues that may arise Customer Satisfaction: The project aims to enhance the overall customer experience by providing an intuitive and efficient website interface Customers should be able to easily search for their desired CDs, access detailed information about the recordings, and make purchases securely Scope The scope of the Tune Source project includes developing an online platform for customers to search for and purchase CDs in the genres of jazz, rock, country, and folk It involves implementing features such as catalogue browsing, search functionality, music sample playback, user registration and accounts, secure online payment processing, and website maintenance The scope also encompasses integration with the existing IT infrastructure and ensuring compatibility with evolving web technologies 3.2 General discription Business requirements Providing access to a comprehensive music archive with a focus on hard-to-find and classic jazz, rock, country, and folk recordings Allowing customers to listen to music samples before making a purchase Introducing customer subscription accounts for unlimited downloads Selling music download gift cards Capitalizing on digital music sales to drive cross-selling opportunities Achieving revenue growth through increased sales and new revenue streams User needs Access to a wide range of music genres Easy search and discovery of music Personalized accounts and preferences Subscription options for unlimited music downloads Gift card options for gifting music Reliable and responsive website experience 3.3 Software features and requirements Features Music Search: Users can search for music tracks based on artist, album, genre, or other criteria Music Sampling: Users can listen to short music samples to preview tracks Online Purchasing: Users can purchase music tracks and albums online Gift Card Sales: Users can purchase gift cards for digital music downloads Account Management: Users can create and manage personalized accounts, including order history and preferences Functional requirements and Non-Functional requirements These requirements are defined at part I, FRs and NFRs (above) III Discussing how would trace these requirements throughout the project (M3) I would use SDLC to trace these requirements throughout the project SDLC is a process that defines the various stages involved in the development of software for delivering a high-quality product SDLC stages cover the complete life cycle of a software i.e from inception to retirement of the product
