Question 1

Use case modeling represents the ________ of a system.
A) behavior
B) condition
C) technology
D) heart and soul

Accepted Answer

Use case modeling is a technique used to describe the behavior of a system by identifying its functionalities and how users interact with it.

Question 2

To create initial use cases you start with ________.
A) counting actors
B) domain analysis
C) looking into problem space
D) looking into solution space

Accepted Answer

Domain analysis is the process of understanding the problem space and identifying the actors involved.

Question 3

Which of the following is NOT one of the components of a use case?
A) a goal
B) actors
C) a scenario
D) behavior

Accepted Answer

Use cases are a technique for capturing the functional requirements of systems, describing how a system interacts with external entities (actors) to achieve a goal within a given scenario. The term "behavior" is not specifically identified as a component of a use case; instead, behavior is an aspect that can be inferred or described by the combination of the goal, actors, and scenario.

Question 4

A ________ is what the successful completion of a use case achieves.
A) system objective
B) behavior
C) goal
D) scenario

Accepted Answer

A use case's successful completion achieves a "goal," which is the specific objective or outcome that the use case is designed to accomplish.

Question 5

"Register student" is an appropriate ________ for a use case.
A) goal
B) name
C) scenario
D) both A & B

Accepted Answer

"Register student" is both an appropriate goal for a use case, as it describes the objective of the use case, and an appropriate name, as it succinctly summarizes the action or process the use case is meant to capture.

Question 6

Which of the following is an appropriate name for a use case?
A) manage patient
B) refer patient
C) patient management
D) all of the above

Accepted Answer

"Refer patient" is an appropriate name for a use case because it describes a specific action or interaction that the system performs, which is typical for use case naming.

Question 7

The goal of a use case must be ________.
A) a logically complete function
B) short
C) good
D) doable

Accepted Answer

A use case must be a logically complete function, meaning that it must describe a single, coherent action that the system can perform.

Question 8

A use case describes the interaction of entities ________ a system with the system.
A) inside
B) outside
C) both A & B
D) neither A or B

Accepted Answer

Use cases describe how external entities (users or other systems) interact with the system, focusing on the requirements from an external point of view.

Question 9

Business concepts are discovered during ________.
A) behavioral modeling
B) decision making
C) domain analysis
D) requirements gathering

Accepted Answer

Business concepts are typically discovered during domain analysis, which involves understanding the specific area of interest or industry to identify relevant concepts and terminology.

Question 10

Domain definition helps define ________.
A) subsystems
B) business concepts
C) behavioral modeling
D) requirements gathering

Accepted Answer

The answer of Domain definition helps define ________.
A) subsystems
B) business...

Question 11

Use case modeling is the gateway between domain analysis and the modeling of ________.
A) requirements
B) data
C) the internal affairs of the system
D) the information system.

Accepted Answer

The answer of Use case modeling is the gateway between...

Question 12

A use case details the interaction of an actor with a system to accomplish a goal of value to the ________.
A) system
B) actor
C) analyst
D) programmer

Accepted Answer

A use case describes how an actor interacts with a system to achieve a goal that is valuable to the actor, not the system, analyst, or programmer.

Question 13

A use case describes what a system does as viewed from ________ the system.
A) outside
B) inside
C) within
D) the bottom of

Accepted Answer

A use case describes the actions of a system from the perspective of an external user, thus it is viewed from outside the system.

Question 14

A use case is a ________ that formalizes the interaction between stakeholders and the system.
A) contract
B) procedure
C) programming language
D) system policy

Accepted Answer

A use case acts as a contract specifying the interactions between a system and its external entities (stakeholders), detailing the system's behavior under various conditions.

Question 15

Use case modeling is limited to a system's ________ behavior.
A) internal
B) future
C) past
D) external

Accepted Answer

Use case modeling is primarily focused on defining the external behavior of a system, specifically how users (actors) interact with the system to achieve their goals. It does not delve into the internal workings of the system, nor does it concern itself directly with future or past behaviors, but rather with the interactions as they are understood at the time of modeling.

Question 16

Use cases are not effective in capturing the ________ requirements.
A) functional
B) business
C) non-functional
D) system

Accepted Answer

Use cases are primarily designed to capture functional requirements through descriptions of how users will interact with a system. Non-functional requirements, which include performance, security, reliability, etc., are not effectively captured by use cases as these aspects are more about how the system performs a function rather than what functions the system performs.

Question 17

Use cases describe ________ a system accomplishes.
A) what
B) how
C) when
D) where

Accepted Answer

Use cases describe what a system accomplishes by outlining the interactions between users and the system to achieve specific goals.

Question 18

A use case's ________ is its goal. It must be active, concise, and decisive.
A) location
B) address
C) name
D) actor

Accepted Answer

The goal of a use case is often encapsulated in its name, which should be active, concise, and decisive to clearly convey its purpose.

Question 19

________ are those entities whose interests are affected by the success or the failure of the use case.
A) Viewers
B) Stakeholders
C) Programmers
D) Clients

Accepted Answer

Stakeholders are individuals or groups that have an interest in the outcome of a project, system, or use case, as their interests are directly affected by its success or failure.

Question 20

The goal of the primary actor is specified by the ________ of the use case.
A) scenario
B) system
C) length
D) name

Accepted Answer

The goal of the primary actor is specified by the name of the use case. The name is typically chosen to reflect the intent or the outcome that the primary actor wants to achieve by interacting with the system.
