    Look and feel requirements are very important for requirements. It tells about the appearance and informed about the intended spirit, the mood, shape, or the design of the appearance of the product. Look and feel requirements are written as the product shall comply with corporate branding standard. The products should innovative, consistent, and exciting. Every design has one prototype which informed the expected look and feel of the product.

  2. Performance requirements are a great way to access how a task can/will be accomplished over a period of time. The key words are “over a period of time” as this can set the metric to measure how well or how fast a requirement can be accomplished in. For Tim Hortons performance requirements are crucial since they operation in the fast-food service industry where customers demand food and service instantly. By setting these goals Tim Hortons can create metrics to accomplish tasks/goals as quick as possible.

  3. Usability and Humanity:
    Usability requirements are often left out of the requirements specification on the assumption that no sane programmer would build a product that is hard to use. At the same time, the product’s usability might be one of the key factors that determine whether the intended users actually use it. Do not make the mistake of assuming the product will be usablewhat is usable to one person could be unfathomable to another.
