Overview:
This use cases training course is a hands-on introduction to the basic concepts of identifying and writing use cases for system analysts, business analysts and subject matter experts. Participants will learn how use cases are identified during requirements gathering, and how actors are used to initiating use cases. Prerequisites and guarantees will be identified, and guidelines established for their use. Students will learn how to identify and document alternate paths. Use Case Diagrams, their syntax and use within UML will be discussed, along with practical advice concerning their use. Finally, the differences between high-level (essential) and detailed (system) use cases will be covered. Concepts will be reinforced with hands-on lab exercises, facilitated by the instructor, to simulate the development of use cases in a production environment.
Audience:
This course has been expressly designed for the Business Analyst, Business System Analyst, System Analyst, and/or Requirements Engineer. The Designer, Developer, and Tester who are actively involved in utilizing use cases may also benefit from this workshop.
Pre-Requisites:
Participants should have a general understanding of object-oriented analysis and design concepts. Basic computer skills and familiarity with Windows-based applications are also a must.
