Software requirement analysis of “family tracking mobile application” on cross platform with hybrid approach

Abstract

The number of smartphone users in Indonesia has increased every year. This country belongs to the 4 countries most smartphone users in the world. The diversity of devices and platforms in mobile phone / smartphone creates a challenge for mobile application developers, such as context-aware features and reusability aspects, so that built applications can run on a cross-platform basis. Good quality software was built exactly to suit of its user requirement. So the mobile application developers need quality requirement as a reference. By using the quality requirement, developers will know what to follow or should be prioritized when developing application for good quality. In this research, we proposed the quality requirement that has been validated with triangulation of 3 methods of data collection such as interviews, surveys and observations. The quality requirement was obtained based on the results from a qualitative approach that identifies the functional and non-functional requirement that can be compiled and adapted to mobile applications that running on cross platforms, so developers can use them to build the them with good quality.
