초록

소프트웨어 개발에서 요구사항 도출 및 분석은 매우 중요한 단계이며, 다양한 이해관계자가 관여하기 때문에 많은 시간과 노력을 필요로 한다. ChatGPT는 다양한 문서를 학습한 대규모 언어 모델로서 코드 생성, 디버깅 등의 능력은 물론 소프트웨어 분석 설계 영역에서도 활용할 수 있는 능력을 갖고 있는 것으로 연구되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 ChatGPT의 이러한 능력을 활용하여 소프트웨어 요구사항 도출, 시스템 목표에 적합한 요구사항 분석, 유스케이스 형태로 문서화하는 요구공학 방법을 제안한다. 소프트웨어 요구공학에서 이해관계자, 분석가, ChatGPT는 협업 모델을 가져야 하며, 요구사항 도출, 분석, 명세화에서 ChatGPT의 결과를 초기 요구사항으로 하여 분석가와 이해관계자가 점검 및 내용을 추가하는 형태로 요구공학이 진행하는 것을 제안한다. ChatGPT의 성능이 향상될수록 요구사항의 도출 및 분석이 점차 정확도를 높일 수 있을 것이며, 소프트웨어 요구공학에서 시간 및 비용을 절감할 수 있을 것이다.

In software development, the elicitation and analysis of requirements is a crucial phase, and it involves considerable time and effort due to the involvement of various stakeholders. ChatGPT, having been trained on a diverse array of documents, is a large language model that possesses not only the ability to generate code and perform debugging but also the capability to be utilized in the domain of software analysis and design. This paper proposes a method of requirements engineering that leverages ChatGPT's capabilities for eliciting software requirements, analyzing them to align with system goals, and documenting them in the form of use cases. In software requirements engineering, it suggests that stakeholders, analysts, and ChatGPT should engage in a collaborative model. The process should involve using the outputs of ChatGPT as initial requirements, which are then reviewed and augmented by analysts and stakeholders. As ChatGPT's capability improves, it is anticipated that the accuracy of requirements elicitation and analysis will increase, leading to time and cost savings in the field of software requirements engineering.
