This paper investigates which activities and success factors can be identified for the data-driven validation of functional requirements. For this purpose, a case study is conducted at a machine tool manufacturer. To validate functional requirements by analyzing data of reference products, these activities must be performed iteratively: basic work, interdisciplinary work, programming and check results. For the successful execution of data-driven validation, the success factors: data origin, acceptance, data quality, knowledge about data and combination of domain knowledge must be considered.
