    • as a post-condition

    • As a exception flow

    • As an alternative flow

    Correct Answer
    A. as a post-condition
    Explanation
    The given statement describes a situation that occurs after a new Loan object has been created and all the necessary data has been provided and saved. It states that the collections of all Loans for the Catalog and the relevant Borrower have been updated. This indicates that the statement is describing a post-condition, which is a condition that is expected to be true after a particular action or event has occurred.

    Which of the following best categorizes use cases?

    • It is an analysis technique

    • It is an testing technique

    • It is an design technique

    • is is both an analysis and a design technique

    Correct Answer
    A. It is an analysis technique
    Explanation
    Use cases are a technique used in software development to identify and describe how a system will be used by its users. They are primarily used during the analysis phase of a project to understand user requirements and define system functionality. Use cases are used to capture user interactions, system behavior, and the flow of events in a system. They help in identifying actors, defining system boundaries, and understanding the overall system architecture. Therefore, use cases are best categorized as an analysis technique.

    • extends, generalizes, includes, packages

    • Actors, boundaries, cases, interactions

    • Assumptions, pre-conditions, post-conditions, flow

    • Description, pre-conditions, main flow, alternative flows, exceptions, post-conditions

    Correct Answer
    A. Description, pre-conditions, main flow, alternative flows, exceptions, post-conditions
    Explanation
    The correct answer outlines the structure of a typical use case in the usual order. It starts with a description of the use case, followed by pre-conditions that must be met before the use case can be executed. Then, the main flow of the use case is described, which represents the normal sequence of steps. Alternative flows are then described, which represent different paths or variations in the main flow. Exceptions are then outlined, which are unexpected events or errors that may occur during the execution of the use case. Finally, post-conditions are described, which are the outcomes or results of the use case.

    What is meant by including a use case?

    • Creating a new use case by adding new steps to an existing base case

    • creating a new use case by removing steps from an existing base case

    • Adding exception and alternative flows to an existing base use case

    • Reusuing one use case's steps inside another use case

    Correct Answer
    A. Reusuing one use case's steps inside another use case
    Explanation
    Including a use case refers to the practice of reusing the steps from one use case in another use case. This allows for the efficient and effective representation of common functionalities or processes across different scenarios. By reusing steps, it eliminates the need to duplicate the same actions or interactions, promoting consistency and reducing redundancy in the overall system design. This approach also enhances maintainability, as any changes or updates made to the reused use case will automatically reflect in all instances where it is included.

    What is meant by extending a use case?

    • Adding exception and alternative flows to an existing base use case

    • Creating a new use case by adding new steps to an existing base case

    • Reusuing one use case's steps inside another use case

    • Creating a new use case by removing steps from an existing base case

    Correct Answer
    A. Creating a new use case by removing steps from an existing base case
    Explanation
    Extending a use case refers to creating a new use case by removing steps from an existing base case. This means that the new use case will be derived from the existing base case but with some steps removed or modified to meet a different set of requirements or conditions. This allows for the reuse of certain steps from the base case while tailoring it to specific scenarios or user interactions.
