Is the requirement to access all functionality over a website functional or non functional?


The title pretty much sums up my question. Is the requirement for a website functional or non functional?

For me the what needs to be implemented is a functional requirement. The non functional requirements describe the way how to implements this functionality.

That's why I tend to mark it as a non functional requirement.

Thanks in advance.


Solution

  • Requesting a specific access channel is a functional requirement.

    An example for a nonfunctional requirement would be that requests to that website must be responded within 2 seconds (under certain conditions that would be further defined of course).
