Prototypes

Creating a functional mock-up of the product so stakeholders can review and validate requirements early, before building the full solution.

Key Points

  • Used to elicit and confirm requirements by showing how the product will work.
  • Can range from low-fidelity sketches to high-fidelity interactive models or simulations.
  • Reviewed in short cycles; feedback is used to refine scope and requirements.
  • Helps reduce rework and misunderstandings, but may raise expectations if mistaken for the final product.

Example

A project team developing a customer portal builds a clickable screen prototype that demonstrates login, account view, and payment flows. Stakeholders test it in a workshop, identify missing fields and navigation issues, and the team updates the requirements before design and development begin.
