tooteomaduste

Tooteomaduste, or product properties, denote the attributes that describe a product's characteristics, capabilities, and constraints. They cover functional attributes (what the product does), performance measures (speed, capacity, energy use), quality characteristics (reliability, durability), usability (learnability, accessibility), safety and regulatory compliance, as well as physical and environmental properties such as size, weight, materials, and recyclability.

Common classifications separate functional from non-functional properties; explicit equals directly specified in documentation; mandatory vs optional; core vs extended. Properties can be defined at different levels of granularity, from high-level value propositions to detailed technical specifications. They connect customer needs to engineering tasks and provide a basis for evaluation, benchmarking, and compliance.

In product development, tooteomaduste inform design decisions, guide trade-offs, and define acceptance criteria. They are typically captured in product requirements documents, data sheets, and specification sheets, and are validated through testing and prototyping. User stories and use cases may describe expected behaviors, while metrics set target thresholds for performance, quality, and safety.

Examples vary by domain: consumer electronics may specify battery life, weight, display resolution, and thermal limits; software products may define API compatibility, response time, scalability, and security features; automotive or industrial equipment may list emissions, durability, maintenance intervals, and regulatory approvals.

Precise, unambiguous documentation of tooteomaduste helps cross-functional teams coordinate, enables competitive comparison, and supports lifecycle management. Pitfalls include overloading the product with excessive or conflicting properties, ambiguities in terms, and failing to maintain documentation as the product evolves.
