System Requirements Specification (SRS)

The System Requirements Specification (SRS) is a document detailing the functional and non-functional requirements for a software system. It serves as a guide for developers throughout the project lifecycle.

Key Components:

  • Functional requirements: Describes what the system should do.
  • Non-functional requirements: Covers performance, usability, reliability, etc.
  • Use cases: Illustrates how users will interact with the system.
  • Constraints: Lists limitations or conditions affecting development.

An effective SRS helps ensure that all stakeholders have a clear understanding of project goals and expectations.
