| Sep 5, 2012 at 2:03 | comment | added | Jimmy Hoffa | @EmmadKareem While analysts often should and do write the spec up and define requirements, it is very important that the actual developer do their own requirements gathering from the analyst, filtering the product requirements into technical requirements, many times in this filtering process the product requirements should or must change due to technical reasons the analyst couldn't have known. | |

Programmers are not the best qualified people to gather requirements anyway. In many cases this is the job for Systems Analysts or Business Analysts. Guessing is bad. | |

| Sep 4, 2012 at 23:06 | comment | added | psr | On average I would say clients are more ambiguous than exercises. Also, just because clients say they want something doesn't mean it's really what will make them happy. | |
| Sep 4, 2012 at 22:59 | comment | added | Jeff Vanzella | Most clients don't know what they want. They have this grand idea in their head of what they think they want. It's up to the development team to pull it out and define it. | |
