Tests and Requirements, Requirements and Tests: A Möbius Strip

  • Artikel

Over a year ago, Robert Martin and I wrote a paper on exploring and disambiguating requirements with acceptance tests. In it we formulate the equivalence hypothesis - as formality increases, acceptance tests and requirements become indistinguishable. At the limit, acceptance tests and requirements are equivalent. IEEE Software magazine published it in the January/February’08 issue (https://www.computer.org/portal/cms_docs_software/software/homepage/2008/s1mel.pdf).

As usual, comments are welcomed.

    This is a good paper. Thanks for writing it. Can you or anyone else point us to how we would implement this vision inside of TFS / MSF Agile? Our team is sort of struggling with these distinctions right now. Take care, Josh
