Use Case Modeling Exercise

The course  teaches attendees how to write high quality use cases and supplementary specifications, designing in tutorial and hands-on style that enables attendees learning the essentials of writing Use Cases and building a Use Case Model quickly and effectively.

Every Part of the course is accompanied with extensive exercises, reviews and discussions that will enable participants to gain practical skills they can use in their work.  Particular attention is given to best practices and most productive techniques for writing high quality requirements.

A Library System Case Study will be used throughout the Course for illustrating the entire use case modeling and analysis development process, which is divided into six major development steps.
