Abstract

In the light of the tremendous interest that gamified blood donation (BD) mobile applications (apps) started to gain, it is necessary to consider the quality assessment of the requirements implemented in this apps. In this paper, we provide a general overview of requirements for gamified BD apps, which have been retrieved from literature and extracted from the existing apps on the market. Using the ISO/IEC 25010 quality model, a checklist was established to analyse the influence of the identified requirements on 30 software product quality characteristics. The results obtained show a significant variability in the degree of impact of the various requirements. In particular, users’ actions and App’s features are the blocks of requirements that reached a very high degree of influence on quality characteristics. The only sub-characteristic affected by the whole range of requirements is Appropriateness of Functional Suitability. 92% of requirements influenced Operability characteristic whereas the lowest degrees of impact were noted for Compatibility (16%) and Transferability (11%). Blood donation apps’ developers and stakeholders may consider the degree of impact analysis reported in this study to identify software quality requirements which could be included in the quality assessment of these apps.
