CHAPTER

Evolution of Use Cases in Software Engineering

The chapter explores the evolution of use cases in software engineering, from their role in use case driven development to a more natural approach introduced by Alistair which led to a structured method for detailing use cases. It covers the foundation of use cases, including a paper called 'Use Case Foundation' that defines use cases, principles, patterns, and practices like use case storytelling and visualization. The chapter also discusses the recent collaboration efforts to revive the importance of use cases and integrate them with modern software engineering practices.
