Requirements Engineering: Foundation for Software Quality

Welcome to the proceedings of the 22nd edition of REFSQ: the International Working Conference on Requirements Engineering – Foundation for Software Quality! Requirements engineering (RE) has been recognized as a critical factor that impacts the quality of software, systems, and services. Since the term “requirements engineering” was coined, the community of practitioners and researchers has been working tirelessly on the identification, characterization, and evaluation of the multifaceted relationships between aspects of requirements processes, artifacts, and methods and aspects of software quality. The REFSQ working conference series has been well established as Europe’s premier meeting place in RE and as one of the leading international forums dedicated to the conversation on RE and its many relationships to quality.
