Question 161

What type of requirements elicitation technique is the Delphi Technique?

    Correct Answer: A

    The Delphi Technique is a method used to gather information from a panel of experts through multiple rounds of questionnaires. The responses are aggregated and refined over subsequent rounds until a consensus is reached. This iterative process is characteristic of a survey-based approach, where individual opinions are gathered separately and then synthesized systematically. Therefore, the Delphi Technique is classified as a survey-based requirements elicitation technique.
