Requirements Management with Use Cases Key Concepts, Use case Model Essentials elements of Use Cases: The writing process . . . (Dos and Don'ts) Analyzing Use Case text to uncover specific system requirements Converting Use Case description sentences into well-formed requirement A style guide with suggested formats for different levels of Use Case Business modeling i.e. techniques of identifying business concepts and tasks, and introducing relevant parts of UML along the way/during Analysis phase. Activity Diagram Use Case Analysis Overview Use Case Analysis Overview Supplement Use case Description Find Classes from Use Case behavior Distribute Use case behavior to Classes Responsibilities of classes Describe attributes and associations Class Diagrams Sequence Diagram Collaboration Diagram

Introduction to Data Modeling, Data Analysis & Testing Goals of Data Modeling, Logical & Physical Design (E-R Diagram) Goals of testing, functions performed during testing process, a Business Analyst approach to testing Testing methodologies Black box and white box testing, Positive and Negative tests Testing (UAT) Reusable test plans, test procedures and Test Cases template Derived test cases from use cases Identification of Test Scenarios, tracing test cases to test scenarios Traceability matrix Business validation and verification Analysis of the System results Documenting unexpected behaviors User signoff Process and fulfilling expectations Tools Training Introduction to Requirements Management and Rational RequistePro Identifying and creating Business requirements in RequistePro Introduction to UML Business Modeling and Rational Rose / UML Advantages to visual modeling, Rational Rose interface, views and diagrams Managing UML entities and relationships for the various UML diagrams Use Case, Activity and State Diagrams Sequence and Class Diagrams

Hands-On Training Candidates are required to complete take away and in class mini projects to effectively utilize the classroom course and grasp the fundamentals of the UML. Candidates will have the opportunity to write use cases for business scenarios and build the solution model in a team / individual basis. Mini projects will be reviewed in class in order to ensure quality work product creation required to complete take away and in class mini projects to effectively utilize the classroom course and grasp the fundamentals Of the UML Candidates are presented with online demonstration of UML Modeling software like Rational Rose / UML. Candidates are encouraged to create UML diagrams for the assignments using the software tools. Specific emphasis will be on the business diagrams.
