Software Requirements Specification (SRS) document has several key characteristics:

  1. Clarity: The requirements are clearly and precisely stated, avoiding ambiguity and ensuring that they are easily understandable by all stakeholders.

  2. Completeness: All functional and non-functional requirements are fully described, covering every aspect of the system's functionality and constraints.

  3. Consistency: The document is free from contradictions and ensures that all requirements are coherent and align with each other.

  4. Verifiability: Each requirement is written in a way that allows it to be tested and verified through inspections, tests, or other means.

  5. Traceability: Requirements are linked to specific business objectives or user needs, and each requirement can be traced back to its origin.

  6. Modifiability: The document is structured in a way that allows for easy updates and modifications as requirements evolve.

  7. Understandability: The language used is appropriate for the intended audience, including both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

  8. Feasibility: Requirements are realistic and achievable within the project’s constraints of time, budget, and technology.

  9. Prioritization: Requirements are prioritized to reflect their importance and urgency, aiding in resource allocation and project planning.

  10. Unambiguity: Each requirement is expressed in a way that leaves no room for multiple interpretations, ensuring that stakeholders have a shared understanding.
