Product Description
This timely second edition describes a process based on employing use cases to gather and define software requirements. Use cases, roughly defined, involve the process of figuring out exactly how end-users will "use" a software system when it is completed before coding begins. Both the process and its presentation have been thoroughly revised based on the authors' more recent consulting experience and on feedback gathered from readers of the first edition over the past three years. Of particular note, the authors have added or enhanced coverage of topics not addressed in other books, even though these topics are vital to successful use case application in industry: for example, project management in a use case driven lifecycle, and use case maintenance or change over time.
