Abstract |
In the previous decades, there are many requirements management tools available in the market. However, these tools are expensive, complicated, difficult to learn and too sophisticated for small and medium projects that have resources and budget limitation. Thus, a requirements management tool, known as Requirements Management Tool for Small and Medium Projects (RMT-SMP) is developed on open source platform targeting the small and medium software projects. This paper presents an evaluation of using RMT-SMP during software development projects for small and medium projects in the real industry. This work is steered based on empirical methods in software engineering using case study. In software engineering, case studies are used for validating research, for example, evaluation of new tools, processes, or methods. Thus, the case study research design components are research questions, preposition or hypothesis, unit of analysis, determination of how data are linked to prepositions and criteria interpret the findings. In order to establish quality of case study, we conducted construct validity, internal validity, external validity and reliability. The result of this case study has shown the success of applying the RMT-SMP during software project development for small and medium projects and can be concluded that RMT-SMP is practical and feasible for the small and medium projects. The RMT-SMP encourages the practitioners to have a better approach in managing their requirements during software development projects. |
