Nonfunctional Requirement

A software requirement that describes not what the software will do but how the software will do it. [ ISO/IEC/IEEE 24765 ]

Notes

  • Software performance requirements, software external interface requirements, software design constraints, and software quality attributes. Nonfunctional requirements are sometimes difficult to test, so they are usually evaluated subjectively. [ ISO/IEC/IEEE 24765 ]
