Use Case 

 Hi,

I recenlty joined a new company and I have a few years of business analysis experience. The PM of the new company is coming from an ERP background and has no experience in BRD/FSD creation. She is asking me to get rid of use cases telling me it is outdated. She is also asking me to create test cases from a proposal document(consisiting mostly of diagrams). I am getting confused and I am given a dead line. When I ask for more details..she asks me to asks questions to get the details. Is this a normal business analysis practice?

I learned from my Grandma June and her kitchen was her sanctuary, a small, warm sunlit space filled with jars of spices, stacks of cookbooks, and the comforting smell of something always on the stove or baking in the oven. Grandma June was as great a cook as she was a teacher to me. She never followed a recipe “to...
