Provided by Last Minute Training
The course covers what the Business Analyst needs to accomplish in each
requirements-gathering session (goals, agenda, who to invite, artifacts, etc.) as the
project progresses - starting from business use-case sessions that focus on the
business context through to system use cases that focus on user-IT interactions.
Trainees also learn advanced techniques (extension, generalized and inclusion use
cases) for structuring use cases that result in requirements documentation that is easy
to revise as business rules change.
The course employs use cases, todaya s most widely accepted method of requirements
capture. The clear style and organization of use cases makes them well-suited as a
source of test cases and for communicating with both business stakeholders and
developers. In addition, use cases are a central aspect of iterative development
methodologies such as IBMa s RUP and Microsofta s MSF. Business Process Modeling
Notation (BPMN) is also introduced as an alternative to activity diagrams, for
documenting the way business use cases are implemented.
