Description

The course provides hands-on experience with use cases, today’s most widely accepted method of requirements capture.  The clear style and organization of use cases makes them well suited as a source of test cases; for communicating with both business stakeholders and developers; and as a preferred choice for persistent requirements documentation on both Waterfall and agile projects that need to ‘persist’ requirements for communication with non-agile teams and for future product changes.

In this course, you’ll walk through the requirements elicitation and documentation process over the course of a project, implementing the ‘use-case’ approach used widely in the industry, methodologies and standards (e.g., the UML, RUP, MSF, Use-Case 2.0). You’ll learn that ‘use cases’ are about much more than the documentation – that they are also an effective tool for structuring and facilitating elicitation events over the course of an IT Project.  You’ll learn how to phase in the analysis the ‘use-case’ way – starting from business use-case interviews that focus on business processes and services through to system use-case interviews that focus on user-IT interactions. The course also provides practical guidance on handling common analysis situations – such as how to model user authentication requirements, business rules and functional requirements when using the use-case approach.
