"Good Quality" Requirements are the main factors the success of a software development project that make products with "good quality". The products with the features of the initial pre-determined and functional, timely and budget estimates. ABB has adopted the software development process based RUP®1 a project to develop a new generation Stressometer system.
"Good Quality" Software Requirements are requirements for software product"Qualified".
Cost "Bad Quality" Requirements have been studied since the early 1970s. Research Boehm to 63 software project of the three companies, namely GTE, TRW, and IBM, described that the changes in the cost grows exponentially during the project. These results suggest that the repair cost two hundred times greater than the maintenance phase stage requirements.
RUP is a generic process and can not be avoided in accordance with the needs of a specific project or projects of special department for an efficiency and effectiveness better. In an effort to establish a balance between providing good quality software products and so timely, Stressometer ABB product lines adapted RUP while adhering to the RUP.
