For many organizations, poorly written requirements impact their ability to develop high quality software in a timely manner. Poorly written, ambiguous requirements are the most common reason that the average defect injection rate for software engineers is about 1 defect for every 8 lines of code written.

This seminar discusses the impact of poorly written requirements and identifies ways to write requirements that are less ambiguous.
