 Lab 1: Use Case
Introduction

Visual Modeling is a way of thinking about problems using models organized around real-world
ideas. Models are useful for understanding problems, communicating with everyone involved
with the project (customers, domain experts, analysts, designers, etc.), modeling enterprises,
preparing documentation, and designing programs and databases

Objectives
Students will get themselves familiarized with the UML designing tools. Students will also learn
how to write use cases. This lab will help students to better understanding of the following:

 Visual modeling.
 Introduction to UML.
 Introduction to visual modeling with UML.
 Use case diagrams: Discovering actors and use cases

After the completion of this lab, students will be able to:

 Find the characters from a scenario and create use case diagrams
 Identify and define entities

Tools/Software Requirement
 Papyrus/Rational Rose/Any online Tool.

Description

A use case is a written description of how users will perform tasks. It outlines, from a user’s
point of view, a system’s behavior as it responds to a request. Each use case is represented as a
sequence of simple steps, beginning with a user's goal and ending when that goal is fulfilled

Lab Task
 Consider any example of your own, and draw its USE CASE, also find/ Identify the
characters / entities from a scenario.

Solution

Deliverables
Compile a single word document by filling in the solution part and submit this Word file on
LMS. This lab grading policy is as follows: The lab is graded between 0 to 10 marks. The
submitted solution can get a maximum of 5 marks. At the end of each lab or in the next lab, there
will be a viva related to the tasks. The viva has a weightage of 5 marks. Insert the
solution/answer in this document. You must show the implementation of the tasks in the
designing tool, along with your completed Word document to get your work graded. You must
also submit this Word document on the LMS. In case of any problems with submissions on
LMS, submit your Lab assignments by emailing it to nadeem.nawaz@seecs.edu.pk.
