Study Notes
Analysis Activities
- Identify Entity, Boundary, and Control Objects: figure out important things (entity objects) that the software needs to remember, parts that let us interact with the software (boundary objects), and helpers that make things happen in the software (control objects).
- Map Use Cases to Objects with Sequence Diagrams: connect actions or tasks that users want to do (use cases) with objects in the software, creating diagrams that show the order of actions and interactions between objects.
Modeling Interactions
- Model Interactions among Objects with CRC Cards and Identifying Associations: create cards (CRC cards) for each object, write down their responsibilities and interactions, and figure out how different objects are related or connected to each other (associations).
Identifying Aggregates and Attributes
- Identify Aggregates: find groups of objects that work closely together or are strongly related, recognizing teams of characters who always work together in a story.
- Identify Attributes: identify specific details or characteristics of objects (attributes) that are important for the software, noting down special features or qualities of the characters in a story.
Modeling Inheritance Relationships
- Model Inheritance Relationships: identify the hierarchy or levels of objects where some objects are more general, and others are more specific, understanding how different characters in a story are related.
Reviewing the Analysis Model
- Review the Analysis Model: carefully check and review the analysis model, making sure everything makes sense and that no important details have been missed.
Requirements Elicitation
- Identify Entity Objects: understand what the software should do and how it should work, gathering all the information needed to understand what the software should be like.
- Natural Language Analysis: involves looking at each task or action that users want to perform (use cases) and finding the important things (objects) that are involved in those tasks.
