Functional Vs. Non-Functional 

Hello Everyone,

I just started as a BA about a month and a half ago.  So far, I love it, and it has been amazing!  The only thing I seem to be having a rough time with is distinguishing the difference between FR, and NFR's.  I know they say the "ility" words tend to lean more towards the NF side, and that functional is more of what the system shall do, but is there anything actually within the requirement itself that can help me point out the difference??

 

Thank you all so much in advance!

Jim K.

How do you discover and elicit non-functional requirements?

How do you categorize non-functional requirements?

Let us know if you need more details.

Grandma June was as great a cook as she was a teacher to me. She never followed a recipe “to...
Now, I know, I don’t know what kind of new intro BPO may require, but at least I can promise you upfront that I have something different to say about Business Process Outsourcing or simply BPO. What is it? This hasn't been a call center job or a sales job as we all think. It is a mammoth profile, and firms are grappling to ge...
