If during some stage down the life cycle, the initial
requirements change, what will you do? How will you handle
any changes in the requirements?

Answer Posted / mike jr.

Large scale changes in requirements may require a separate
engineering study to understand the costs and benefits of
the proposed change. But by the wording of the question, a
decision has already been made to change the requirements.

As a requirements analyst, the first thing that I would do
is to call together the immediately impacted stakeholders in
development and test to discuss the change. I would present
the proposed change and allow for negotiation of wording.
Then I would enter a change request (CR) to document the
change and to gain approval. Once approved, I would change
the requirements document and check the changes into a
source control tool like DOORS, VSS, or ClearCase. I would
then change the status of the CR to resolved or closed.
