    - An SRS is verifiable only if every requirement stated therein is verifiable.

    - A requirement is verifiable if and only if there exists some finite cost effective process with which a person or machine can check that the software product meets the requirement.

    - In general, any ambiguous requirement is not verifiable.

    - Non- verifiable requirements include statements such as "works well"," good human interface" and "shall usually happen".

    - These requirements cannot be verified because it is impossible to define the terms "good","well" and "usually".

    - The statement that " the program shall never enter an infinite loop" is non-verifiable because the testing of this quality is theoretically impossible.
