Talk:Functional requirements

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The articles Functional requirements and functional specification seem to handle the same topic. --Abdull 09:28, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

They don't. A functional specification is more specific and state how a system should do something while a functional requirements only state what the system should do. Lakeworks (talk) 17:12, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

This article and the Non-Functional Requirements are quite small in content and should be merged into the Requirement article. --PedroLamarao 21:00, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Functional requirements are not only used in Software projects, but are used in many other engineering fields. I think this page should reflect this.

The comment by Lakeworks is right; however, this article fails to make the distinction clear. It suggests something far closer to a specification than it should, in my opinion. Requirements = goals of the system, not methods for getting there. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.194.13.106 (talk) 03:46, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
