Abstract

Evolution of software systems is prompted by all sorts of changes. This paper demonstrates how the use case , a well known construct in object-oriented analysis, is adapted to form the change case , to identify and articulate anticipated system changes. A change case provides the ability to identify and incorporate expected future change into a design to enhance the long-term robustness of that design. In this paper, we define change cases and demonstrate how change cases are captured by the analyst. We present examples to illustrate how change cases can influence present system design and point the way toward designs that more easily accommodate expected future changes. Change cases can be effectively employed in the context of any methodology that supports use cases and traceability links.
