Define the mandated constraints on the way that the product must be produced. Look for real constraints (as distinct from opinions about how the problem should be solved):
Each constraint should be testable. In other words, how will you know whether you have met the constraint? For each project constraint, ask, "Why it is a constraint?" This question will help you distinguish between real project constraints and solutions posturing as constraints. Refer to the Volere Requirements Specification Template for more guidance in writing constraints. |
