In software engineering, software requirements deals with establishing the needs of stakeholders that are to be solved by software.

The IEEE Standard Glossary of Software Engineering Technology defines a software requirement as:

  • A condition or capability needed by a user to solve a problem or achieve an objective.
  • A condition or capability that must be met or possessed by a system or system component to satisfy a contract, standard, specification, or other formally imposed document.
  • A documented representation of a condition or capability as in 1 or 2.

The activities related to working with software requirements can broadly be broken up into Elicitation, Analysis, Specification, and Management.
