| Activity 9 | Response Measure Straw Man |
The goal of a response measure straw man is to give stakeholders something to beat up until they arrive at their own answers. We do this by inventing a reasonable response measure for some quality attribute scenario as a way to kickstart discussions. The straw man technique works with other architecturally significant requirements discussed in Chapter 5, Dig for Architecturally Significant Requirements.
Benefits
- Provides an example of a measurable response and response measure
- Jump-starts thinking about quality attribute scenarios
- Overcomes blank-page syndrome by providing something to edit instead of creating response measures from scratch
