Requirements can be classified according to various criteria:

  1. By level of detail:

    • Business requirements — describe the goals and objectives of the business.
    • User requirements — what the product should be able to do from the user's perspective.
    • System requirements — technical characteristics and constraints of the system.
  2. By type:

    • Functional requirements — describe the functions and behavior of the system.
    • Non-functional requirements — requirements for performance, security, usability, etc.
  3. By source:

    • External (customer requirements, legislation).
    • Internal (development team requirements, standards).
  4. By priority:

    • Mandatory.
    • Desirable.
    • Additional.
  5. By method of documentation:

    • Explicit (documented).
    • Implicit (assumed, informal).

This classification helps structure requirements and manage them during the development process.
