The requirement is correct but needs additional written clarifi cation.
The requirement needs content update or new documentation that may im-

Before reading further in this chapter body, please review the Analysis stage
documents provided in Case Study B. Case Study B contains four sets of documents,
one set for each development stage. All of the primary documents in each set are

You will fi nd six primary documents in each stage except Analysis (no user interface
documentation). These six primary documents are
Use case suite (high-level description with lists of use cases)
Use cases (each use case documented in detail)
Design architecture (support systems and data fl ow)
Test plan (high-level description with lists of test cases)
Test cases (test case skeletons—see Case Study A for details)
User interface (menus and screens)
Most of the high-level primary documents have links to related detailed documents.
Here is a roadmap of that primary document linkage:
Use case suite links to use cases
Design architecture does not link to other primary documents.
Design user interface does not link to other primary documents.
Test plan links to test cases.
Each test case links to its related use case(s), its design architecture, or its user
interface.
All of the primary documents for the developers except use cases have been omit-
ted from the testing case study. Please refer to any reputable textbook on software
development for examples of the omitted documents.
