“…It was identified that requirements planning and requirements management are RE stages that lack in the number of supporting tools and are therefore RE stages with the most room for growth and development of new tools. This review reached the same conclusion as Cadena-Romero [34] that not many industries are making use of RE tools in real-life scenarios. In order to increase tool effectiveness and acceptance, more case studies in popular and trending industries need to be conducted to increase users' confidence.…”

The commonly known stages in Requirements Engineering (RE) include planning, elicitation, documentation, validation, and management. Each stage consists of multiple processes and activities between stakeholders that result in data collection and analysis. Activities and data can be collected/extracted/analysed by manual or automated software tools to streamline the requirements engineering process. The objective of this review is to collate and study the distribution of tools in each stage and to discover missing gaps (if any) in tools for each stage. An electronic search was conducted on four publication libraries to compile all tools introduced in the requirements engineering field from 2018 to April 2022. 33 publications were found, and data extraction was performed on them to classify the tools to discover common patterns and methodologies. The results from data analysis showed that most new tools focused on elicitation and validation stages of RE. Planning and documentation stages had the least number of new tools. No new methodologies for RE tool creation were introduced. NLP remained the popular approaches among researchers. 21 out of 33 publications did not present case studies to prove the practical applications of the tools they introduced. This review has aggregated knowledge in the tools used in different RE stages.

Requirements engineering (RE) is gaining acceptance by industries and practitioners as a significant process in systems development. Similarly, the publications on the research related to the RE topic progresses. However, there is a lack of study on the progressions of this research based on a bibliographic portfolio. This paper presents the emergence of the RE field and mapping the state of the art of scientific production using a bibliometric survey approach. This study identifies the research trends based on the observations of scientific production over the past two decades. Quantitative and qualitative information in requirements engineering research through various bibliographic attributes are presented, such as the leading journals, top-cited articles, top authors, and top countries. Research trends in RE can be observed based on the number of research themes, and the involvement of various disciplines from RE begin to get acknowledged until this study was conducted. The results provide evidence and an overview of future directions in this research field.
