End-User Requirements
End-user requirements describe what the user needs to be able to do with the website.
There is a small inconsistency in the current Qualifications Scotland documents:
- the project template asks you to create six end-user requirements
- the marking instructions award the mark for four end-user requirements, provided they are appropriately linked to functional requirements and include the required areas
To stay safe, aim for between 4 and 6 end-user requirements, while making sure at least 4 are strong and clearly linked to the required functional requirements.

- Have you included between 4 and 6 requirements?
