This concise and highly readable book describes 20 requirements practices that every software team should perform. These core practices help project and product teams understand the business problem, engage the right participants, articulate effective solutions, communicate information among stakeholders, implement the right functionality in the right sequence, and adapt to change. Suggested Next Steps help you begin putting each practice into action immediately.

Karl Wiegers and Candase Hokanson bring a wealth of insight about how to elicit, analyze, specify, validate, and manage requirements on both traditional and agile projects. Software Requirements Essentials distills the vast body of requirements and business analysis knowledge into a focused, practical book that can enhance any team member's effectiveness. Think of it as the TL;DR or CliffsNotes version of all those big, intimidating books on requirements.
