Towards a Tool to Help Exploring Existing Non-functional Requirements Solution Patterns

Requirements Engineering play a crucial role during the software development process. Many works have pointed out that Non-Functional Requirements (NFRs) are currently more important than Functional Requirements. NFRs can be very complicated to understand due to its diversity and subjective nature. The NDR Framework has been proposed to fill some of the existing gaps to facilitate NFR elicitation and modeling. In this paper, we introduce a tool to help to explore stored knowledge for delivering solutions to implement quality requirements. Preliminary search mechanisms are provided in this tool to facilitate the identification of possible solutions to an NFR and its related consequences to other solutions and/or other NFRs.
