Use cases are an effective and widely used technique for eliciting software requirements. The usage-centric approach focuses on the goals that users have with a system, rather than emphasizing system functionality. This webinar presents an overview of the use-case approach to requirements elicitation in a practical and straightforward fashion. 

Topics covered include:
• Where use cases fit into the requirements development process
• Types of projects for which use cases are and are not well suited
• Use cases and user stories
• User classes and actors
• Scenarios and use cases
• Components of a use case
• Deriving functional requirements from use cases
