Abstract

No requirements elicitation technique has capability of finding all of the software requirements so we have to use variety of techniques that will help us to cover all the requirements, resulting in more effective elicitation. Each technique has its features which makes it different from all other techniques and which make it suitable for a particular condition. The important thing is to use the most appropriate technique. Before using any technique we should have thorough knowledge of that technique. In this paper, we present an in-depth review of different requirements elicitation techniques. We also present Pros and Cons of different elicitation techniques.
