IREB Certified Professional for Requirements Engineering – Foundation Level — Question 6

Which two statements are correct with regard to the introduction of a requirements engineering tool? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. The introduction of a tool defines the future requirements engineering approach
• B. Risks associated with the introduction can be identified through a pilot operation
• C. The requirements engineering processes must be clearly defined before introduction
• D. The license costs are generally the greatest cost block relating to the introduction of a requirements engineering tool

Correct answer: C, D

Explanation

Option C is correct because having clearly defined requirements engineering processes is essential for the effective introduction of a tool. Option D is also correct, as licensing costs often represent a significant portion of the total expenses involved in deploying such tools. Options A and B are not universally true, as the introduction of a tool does not inherently define future methods, and risks can be identified in various ways, not solely through pilot operations.
