Abstract

Selection of the most appropriate RE techniques for a software project based on the project´s characteristics is a non-trivial process and a common challenge faced by software developers. In order to facilitate RE techniques selection, we propose a model for RE technique suitability assessment (RETSA) based on project attributes. This model was developed based on surveys and interviews of experienced software developers and experts from industry and academia. RETSA was applied to an industrial project. This case study shows the help this model provided during the selection of RE techniques for a software project
