Finding out, analyzing, documenting, and checking requirements are important activities in all development approaches, including agile development. This paper discusses problems concerned with the conduction of requirements engineering activities in agile software development processes and suggests some improvements to solve some challenges caused by agile requirements engineering practices in large projects, like properly handling and identifying sensitive (including nonfunctional) requirements, documenting and managing requirements documentation, keeping agile teams in contact with outside customers. The paper also discusses the requirements traceability problem in agile software development and the relationships between the traceability and refactoring processes and their impact on each other.

Abstract
Finding out, analyzing, documenting, and checking requirements are important activities in all development approaches, including agile development. This paper discusses problems concerned with the conduction of requirements engineering activities in agile software development processes and suggests some improvements to solve some challenges caused by agile requirements engineering practices in large projects, like properly handling and identifying sensitive (including nonfunctional) requirements, documenting and managing requirements documentation, keeping agile teams in contact with outside customers. The paper also discusses the requirements traceability problem in agile software development and the relationships between the traceability and refactoring processes and their impact on each other.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
