Chapter 6 Behavioral Modeling I
40) A use case details the interaction of entities within a system.
f
42) The task of domain analysis is to define business concepts from problem space only.
f
43) Use case modeling cannot be used for gathering requirements.
f
45) Use case modeling is the same as functional decomposition.
f
47) "Become a Member of the Video Store and Rent Videotape" could be a name for a use case.
f
48) In developing an information system, no use case may remain unautomated.
f
50) A use case details the interaction of an actor with a system to accomplish a goal of value to the system.
f
53) "Verify Credit Card" can never be a name of a use case.
f
58) An actor is identified by a unique name with many roles to play.
f
59) The example of "Checkout Groceries" relates to the real system.
f
60) The example of "Purchase Groceries" relates to an information system.
f
61) In the example of "Checkout Groceries," the primary actor is the customer.
f
62) In the example of "Purchase Groceries," the primary actor is the cashier.
f
68) Alternate Flow and Exceptions are so different that it is impossible to combine them into one category.
f
69) A use case model consists of only one use case.
f
70) Role and actor refer to two different things.
f
71) Even when an entity indirectly interacts with the information system, it is qualified to be an actor.
f
73) Primary actors and secondary actors do the same thing, but in a different way.
f
74) Domain analysis discovers concepts that are classified as processes, each of which maps into only one use case.
f
75) The primary actor for the "Refer Patient" use case is the patient.
f
76) A context diagram represents the interaction of outside entities with part of a system.
f
79) The initial use case modeling provides complex use cases that later can be broken into more use cases.
f
41) A use case aims to achieve a specific goal by following a set of steps called a scenario.
t
44) Gathering requirements is an ongoing process.
t
46) Use cases are not inherently object-oriented.
t
49) Use cases are useful for communicating upstream with stakeholders as well as exchanging information downstream with designers and programmers.
t
51) A use case describes what a system does as viewed from the outside.
t
52) Components of a use case are tightly integrated and cannot be understood properly without each other.
t
54) Goal decides the relevance of activities in a use case.
t
55) An actor is an entity outside the system that interacts with the system to achieve a specific goal.
t
56) The goal of the primary actor is specified by the name of the use case.
t
57) Actor is a role that any user who has been given the part can play.
t
63) A use case cannot leave a system, but can reach across its boundaries.
t
64) The cashier interacts with the supermarket's Point-of-Sale system by sending and receiving "messages."
t
65) The Point-of-Sale system interacts with the bank to validate a credit card.
t
66) If the customer finds all desired items, brings them to the checkout counter, pays for them, and carries them out, then a normal flow has occurred.
t
67) In the "Checkout Groceries" system, if an item does not have a label to scan and the cashier asks a sales manager to identify the code, an alternate flow has occurred.
t
72) The process of abstraction involves selecting certain characteristics and/or certain behaviors and casting off what does not concern us.
t
77) The initial use case modeling helps to scope the system and verify its boundaries.
t
78) The initial use case modeling provides a summary of use cases that identifies major use cases and their actors.
t
