◀️ 3.2. Simulation from Metrics to Strategic Indicators | 4. Quality Requirements Generation▶️


The last option in the Simulation contextual menu is Quality Requirements. In this view, the user can simulate the effect that a Quality Requirement with a specific value for one Metric would have in the assessed values of the Strategic Indicators.

In this view, the user must select one Quality Requirement from the list that appears when the button next to the text Quality Requirement Candidate is clicked. After that, the content of the Quality Requirement is shown in the fields of the left column, with the slider corresponding to the Metric affected by this requirement below it. The subsequent columns show the same information as in the Metrics view: This view works very similarly to the Factors view:

  • Quality Requirement and related Metrics on the left, with the metrics values represented by a slider that can be adjusted to the user’s choice.
  • Detailed Factors on the left, second column, the user can see which Metrics affect to each Factor.
  • Detailed Strategic Indicators, third column, the user can see which Quality Factors affect to each Strategic Indicator.
  • Strategic Indicators, on the right, the user can see the impact on each Strategic Indicator.

Quality Requirements Simulation View

In case when selected profile specifies that only Factors and Metrics information is shown, this view becomes the one that allows to simulate the effect that a Quality Requirement with a specific value for one Metric would have in the assessed values of the Quality Factors.

So this view shows:

  • Quality Requirement and related Metrics on the left, with the metrics values represented by a slider that can be adjusted to the user’s choice.
  • Detailed Factors on the left, second column, the user can see which Metrics affect to each Factor.
  • Factors, on the right, the user can see the impact on each Factor.
