ABSTRACT:
Selecting the correct technique for eliciting and documenting requirements can be challenging for an organization. Without an efficient requirements approach, businesses are unable to come to a shared understanding of project goals, limiting their ability to make effective decisions regarding objectives.

This white paper discusses how to effectively gather and document requirements. Explore how use cases, storyboarding and prototyping provide a powerful combination of techniques for working with requirements. Discover the strengths and weaknesses of each approach and ways to use the three in conjunction to ensure that your project meets expectations. Learn how a natural and reinforcing parallelism exists between working on the use-case descriptions, storyboarding, and prototyping, and how these activities flow together seamlessly during an iteration. Topics: Project Management solutions modeling and visualization source code control documentation generators build management application lifecycle management
