Adaptability

The capability of the software product to be adapted for different specified environments without applying actions or means other than those provided for this purpose for the software considered. [ ISO/IEC 9126-1 ]

Notes

  • Adaptability includes the scalability of internal capacity (e.g. screen fields, tables, transaction volumes, report formats, etc.). [ ISO/IEC 9126-1 ]
  • If the software is to be adapted by the end user, adaptability corresponds to suitability for individualisation as defined in ISO 9241-10, and may affect operability. [ ISO/IEC 9126-1 ]
