Introducing Use Case Estimation |
Use Case Estimation is a comprehensive project estimation tool that is used to calculate effort using Use Case and Actor elements. The complexity of the work environment is set using a series of weighted Technical and Environmental Complexity factors and Use Cases and Actors are given a rating that assigns their complexity as: Easy, Medium or Complex. The method is based on Karner's Use Case Points Method, and allows a metrics report containing the project estimation analysis to be produced and incorporated into project documentation.

Usage of Use Case Estimation |
Use Case Estimation can be used to calculate the required effort to complete an initiative or part of an initiative. |
|
Options for Use Case Estimation |
Environmental and Technical complexity factors can be defined and given weights and values that determine how they influence the effort that is calculated for an initiative.
A value can be assigned to the phase property of one or more Use Cases; this value can be used subsequently as the criteria of a filter to restrict the estimates to just that phase. The estimate can also be filtered based on a Tagged Value set on the Use Cases such as Criticality. |
