Course Description

This workshop provides a strong foundation in the mechanics of using a context diagram and use case diagram to define the scope of the project.  In this interactive workshop, the participant will learn how to enhance and refine their project scoping skills, how to involve your stakeholders in the use case process, and how to develop use cases that provide valuable information to the designers and testers. Use cases that meet the needs of designers can be too technical and too detailed for other stakeholders. Use cases that satisfy business users are usually not very helpful to designers and testers. How do you satisfy these two disparate interests? And how do you handle the details like business rules, data validations and user interface specifications? 

Learning Objectives:

  • Employ use cases to elicit requirements, at a business level

  • Employ use cases to document the scope of a project

  • Plan and divide up the project work based on your use cases

  • Create a Context diagram showing the boundaries of the project

  • Create a Use Case diagram showing the high-level functionality required by the business

  • Evaluate and prioritize Use Cases based on business value
