What is the difference between Requirement and
Specification?

Answer Posted / leng vang

Requirement: collection of "what" user's needs regardless
of technology capabilities and without consideration of how
the needs are met.

Specification: A logical, restricted, bounded and
verifiable description on "how" a system will satisfy the
requirement.

In parallel, system design and test cases are then
developed from the specification.

Specific technology or specific behavior may come with the
requirement, but keep them separate.
