Do Non-Functional Requirements Matter? A Comparison of Traditional and Agile Approaches
Keywords:
Agile, Requirement Engineering, QuestionnaireAbstract
Requirement Engineering is an essential part of the development of applications.However, NFRs are not properly considered in the initial phases of SDLC. NFRs are often hidden in FRs. In the paper, we are conducted a survey about the importance of NFRs in Traditional and Agile development process. The 52 respondents have answered the questionnaire and we are able to conclude that it is very important to consider the NFR. We have found that the 75% respondents consider the NFRs are very important and more than 25 % considered it as important.
