Use cases
A business use case defines a sequence of actions that a business performs that yields an observable result of value (a work output) to a particular business actor or that shows how the business responds to a business event.
A system use case is a sequence of actions that a system performs that yields an observable result of value to a particular actor (someone or something outside the system that interacts with the system).
A use-case diagram can include multiple use cases and the relationships between use cases and the persons, groups, or systems that interact to perform the use case.
Use-case specifications share the same rich-text behavior that is present in all artifacts based on the text artifact format. The specifications often include content that is based on a template or process guidance that is similar to this outline:
- Use-case name
- Brief description
- Flow of events
- Basic flow
- Alternative flows
- Special requirements
- Preconditions
- Post conditions
- Extension points
