About the Requirements
¨ Some of the requirements are testable:
   “The system shall enforce a clearly defined
authentication policy.”
¨ Some are contextual:
   “The system may assume that physical access to the
machine is restricted by external (human) controls.”
¨ Some may be process-oriented:
   “No code change shall be committed to the source
base until it has been examined and approved by
someone other than the developer.”
