Instructions: Copied or shown assignments will be marked zero. Late submissions are not
entertained in any case.

Attempt all questions:

Q1: Read the following case study IBM Rational Clear Quest: (3.75 marks)
A reputable software company just switched to Mac desktop. We want to build a new web-based
CASE Tool which should be able to help a software engineering in throughout SDLC process to
manage software defects. In this tool when we add new defect into system by creating a ticket and a
ticket could be for new issue or an existing issue. And if that issue is too old to trace, we can certainly
reproduce an issue and assign to different developer to solve it. Usually regular tickets go to their
creator only. Issue could be requirement base as well. If the issue gets fixed by creators, they can
change its status “ready to test” and assign back to their originator. Which can check it again if he
found it satisfactory, he close ticket or else re-assign back to its creator. During this whole process
one person PM can look the whole process, and send messages(private messages) to each person to
find out issue that cause delays in that process but that thing can delay.
A. For the above given case study specify if the requirement is Unambiguous, Complete, consistent
and verifiable?
Answer:
The above given case study specifies that requirement is an unambiguous because:
It is not well-known as assigning the new tickets for the same reason to the same persons just
because the reported problem is not solved yet will make the system overload and complex and also
can result in errors that will affect the performance of the system.
But the requirements are complete and we have the advantage because it is giving us a clear vision of
how the system is intended to work while we can make requirements even better by user different
elicitation techniques.
Waterfall Model will prove best for this purpose. Because the company switched its system to Mac
desktop. We have all the thing that we needed to switch like requirements are all well-known
already.
Waterfall Model is the simple and most effective when we have requirements well-known for
developing the product of the organization.
