Hi Rose

Sounds like a great assignment! One book that I like is 'Software
Requirements' by Wiegers.

All the best,
Jennifer
--------------------------------

I have a new assignment at my job. I am working for a newly formed QA group
and I will become the Requirements writer. The Requirements will be formed
through a process of a "Compact Requirements Document" (for which I will be
developing a template) filled out by the Business Analyst and the user.
This will be reviewed (if time allows) by QA, then it will form the input
for a JAD session. From the JAD session I will complete a more detailed
Requirements Document and that will be used by the testers for Test
Plans/Cases.

Do you have any experiences or insight you feel you could share to
illuminate me? Any resources about Requirements gathering or writing --
websites and/or books?

Note: I have written Requirements before, but my main audience was
developers, not testers. I have been reading the article on the Raycomm
site, and do have some templates available including some I've created. I'm
looking specifically for the QA/test angle, but also will be glad to hear
any other related info just for the learning value!

Thanks,
Rosie
