10. “THE QUALITY” OF REQUIREMENTS
Not enough wide
Not enough deep
Part of the requirement is
redundant
Full of mistakes

11. “RUSH” PROBLEM
Project Manager planned time for the
collection and formulation of
requirements without regard to quality
Depth of requirements is the same.
The complexity of the test is not
weighed for each of the features

12. “BULLSHIT” MEANS CONFLICT
The involvement of testers after the
end of the time given to the
development of requirements
User Stories and Use Cases have the
same depth (bad for testing)
The analyst believes that he's/she's
“done”, and reluctantly cooperates
with QA
