Requirements

What the tool is meant to do is written down, covered and traced to tests.

Each level adds measures; a level is reached when its measures and all measures below meet their thresholds. Measures and levels are fixed by the danwos model (The fixed danwos model deci... (DEC_DANWOS_MODEL)); a project only says where the results come from.

Level 1 – Sketched

Feature descriptions exist for the main features.

Level 2 – Shaped

Every user-visible feature described (≥ 80 %).

Level 3 – Solid

Traceability feature → passing test (≥ 80 %).

Level 4 – Refined

Acceptance criteria per feature, all verified; decisions logged.

Level 5 – Audited

Requirements reviewed and approved (100 %), change impact visible.

Possible checks

Examples – which check feeds which measure is the project’s choice.
