Business Analysts (BAs) commonly use a checklist during requirements verification to ensure that all requirements are consistent, complete, coherent, and testable. This checklist typically includes a standard set of quality elements that the requirements must adhere to. The use of a checklist helps BAs to systematically verify each requirement against these quality criteria. Reference: The BABOK Guide lists 8 characteristics of requirements quality: cohesive, complete, consistent, correct, feasible, modifiable, unambiguous, and testable. These characteristics form the basis of the standard quality elements included in a verification checklist1.
