Introduction:
Objectives:
Leverage use cases to elicit stakeholder and functional requirements
Define and model the major components of use case models using Unified Modeling Language (UML) notation
Understand how to leverage use cases in a predictive or adaptive environment
Identify the different types of actors and determine candidate use cases
Develop a use case diagram to communicate system scope
Describe Use Cases through a narrative flow of events (Primary, alternate, and exception paths) using a Use Case Template
Diagram various use case relationships
Develop an Activity Diagram to chart the scenarios of a Use Case
Leverage use cases to quickly create test cases
Develop user interface prototypes based on the use case to uncover additional requirements
