The BRS and SRS are the most important documents to develop any project or software. These types of the document contain the in-depth details of the particular software.
In software testing, BRS and SRS types of document requirements depend upon business type, their standards, how company processes, and what class of software is to be developed.
Business Requirement Specification (BRS)
The BRS document stands for Business Requirement Specification. To create the BRS document, the Business analyst will interrelate with the customers. The BRS document includes the business rules, the project’s scope, and in-detail client’s requirements.In this type of document, the client describes how their business works or the software they need.
Software Requirement Specification SRS
The SRS document stands for Software Requirement Specification .In this document, the Business Analyst will collect the Customer Requirement Specifications (CRS) from the client and translate them into Software Requirement Specification (SRS).The SRS contains how the software should be developed and given by the Business Analyst (BA).In other words, we can say that the SRS document is used to covert the customer information into a detailed document, which can easily understand by the developers and the test engineers.
The main difference between BRS and SRS documents are:
- SRS represented as System Requirement Specification while BRS represented as Business Requirement Specification.
- SRS defines the functional and non-functional needs of the software; on the other hand, BRS is a formal document, which specifies the needs given by the customer.
- The SRS document is developed by the SA (System Architect); on the other hand, the BRS is generally developed by the BA (Business Analyst).
- SRS is obtained from the BRS, whereas BRS is acquired from customer statements and their business needs.
