The selection of requirements engineering (RE) techniques during software project development is a challenge for most developers. One of the reasons is that there is a great lack of requirements engineering education in most academic programs, so software developers have to learn requirements engineering practices on the job. This can easily result in the selection of techniques that are ill-suited for a particular project, as the selection is based on personal preference rather than on the characteristics of the project. Very little research has been done in the area of technique selection based on project attributes. This paper describes research into the selection and combination of RE techniques as well as a case study that applied the selection process to an industrial software project.
