Requirement Specification Example

Assume we're creating an e-commerce software that prioritizes user-friendly shopping for customers and efficient order management for administrators. To ensure its success, we've defined a set of requirements to guide the development process.

Functional Requirements	Description
User Registration and Login	Register with valid email and password; Securely log in for registered users.
Product Catalog	Display product catalog with names, descriptions, prices, and images; Enable filtering by category, price range, and brand.
Shopping Cart	Add and manage products in the cart; View and update cart contents, including quantities and removal; Calculate real-time order total.
Checkout and Payment	Provide checkout option from the shopping cart; Collect shipping and billing information during checkout; Securely process payments, including credit card transactions.
Order Management	Grant access to order history and tracking for registered users; Admin access to manage orders, update order status, and generate invoices.
Product Reviews and Ratings	Allow users to leave product reviews and display average ratings.

Non-functional Requirements	Description
Performance	Website pages should load within 2 seconds for a responsive user experience; The system must handle concurrent user sessions without significant performance degradation.
Security	Encrypt and securely store user data, including personal and payment information; Implement protection against common web application vulnerabilities like SQL injection and XSS.
Scalability	Ensure the system can scale to handle increased traffic during peak shopping seasons (e.g., holidays); Include load balancing and allocate server resources for scalability.
Availability	Aim for at least 99.9% website availability, considering planned maintenance periods; Implement failover mechanisms to minimize downtime in case of server failures.
Usability	Ensure the user interface follows best practices for usability and accessibility; Ensure compatibility with major web browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge).
Compliance	Comply with data protection regulations (e.g., GDPR) regarding user data handling; Adhere to Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) requirements for payment processing.
Load Testing	Conduct regular load testing to ensure the website can handle peak traffic loads; Ensure performance thresholds for page load times are met under heavy loads.
Backup and Disaster Recovery	Perform regular backups of user and transaction data and securely store them; Have a disaster recovery plan in place to recover data and operations in case of unforeseen events.
