Information is all you need: Requirements Engineering Quality Reframed

Henning Femmer, Julian Frattini

To move beyond this vague appeal to context, this vision proposes a novel holistic theory of requirements engineering (RE) quality. This theory models how information particles, i.…

Which Requirements Artifact Quality Defects are Automatically Detectable? A Case Study

Henning Femmer, Michael Unterkalmsteiner, Tony Gorschek

[Context] The quality of requirements engineering artifacts, e.g. requirements specifications, is acknowledged to be an important success factor for projects. Therefore, many compa…

How Do Practitioners Interpret Conditionals in Requirements?

Jannik Fischbach, Julian Frattini, Daniel Mendez +3

Context: Conditional statements like "If A and B then C" are core elements for describing software requirements. However, there are many ways to express such conditionals in natura…

Fine-Grained Causality Extraction From Natural Language Requirements Using Recursive Neural Tensor Networks

Jannik Fischbach, Tobias Springer, Julian Frattini +3

[Context:] Causal relations (e.g., If A, then B) are prevalent in functional requirements. For various applications of AI4RE, e.g., the automatic derivation of suitable test cases…
