Modeling and Diagrams Quiz

An actor is a role that a user can play, such as instructor, advisor, or student. Actors do not have to be human and are always outside of the system boundary.

Use cases are actions on a system initiated by an actor. They represent the main tasks performed by each actor and the complete functionality of a task.

Use case modeling helps uncover requirements in a way that clients find easy to understand. It describes who uses the system and what they use it for.
