Title
Empirical analysis of the impact of requirements engineering on software quality
Abstract
[Context & motivation] The process of requirements engineering affects software quality. However, stronger empirical evaluation of this impact is required. [Question/problem] This paper aims to answer the following questions: (1) which factors related to requirements engineering affect software quality, (2) what is the nature of these relationships, and (3) how are soft quality features related to each other? [Principal ideas/results] To answer these questions we performed a quantitative and visual analysis using the extended ISBSG dataset. Obtained results cover a discussion on identified and unconfirmed relationships. [Contribution] The main contribution is an investigation of the relationships between factors of requirements engineering and software quality. Provided results can be used in further research and to guide industrial decision makers. The main limitation in generalizing the results is related to the high number of missing values in the dataset.
