A use case explains the specific scenarios in which a technology can be effectively utilized. It includes necessary steps and the expected outcome.
Use this profile to understand the building block briefly, place it in the model, and switch to the 360° assessment when needed.
Theoretical construct: explains a term, principle, or mental model.
What you need to understand to reason about a domain.
A use case describes how an actor interacts with a system to achieve a particular goal.
The term comes from software engineering and was shaped by Ivar Jacobson’s use-case work in the early 1990s. It describes observable interactions through which a system supports an actor’s goal.
A use case connects an actor, trigger, flow, and expected outcome; variants and exceptions show what else can happen in the flow.
Application
Ein nachvollziehbarer Ablauf verbindet Anlass, Entscheidung und überprüfbares Ergebnis.
Die Methode braucht einen passenden Kontext und ersetzt keine fachliche Prüfung.
Use cases create a shared checkpoint for requirements, design, and testing. They describe behavior but do not replace quality requirements, architecture decisions, or implementation details.
