Software Estimation Workshop Using USE CASE POINTS (UCP) Estimation Methodology

1 Day @ Bangalore (Classroom)
Date: Thursday 27th August 09

Hurry Register Today.

Writing use cases as a means of capturing the behavioral requirements of the software systems and business processes is a practice quickly gaining popularity. The Use Case Points Estimation Method is useful and one of the popular estimation methodologies for estimating software size , and thereby helps in deriving effort and duration on software development projects. The methodology is based on appropriately specifying and counting use case transactions. This workshop provides user, the training on writing Use Cases and Use Case Estimation Points Methodology for software size estimation.
 

Similar in concept to function points, use case points measure the size of a software application. Knowing approximate size of an application in the form of use case points and project team’s rate (Use Case Points per hour), one can derive effort and expected duration for the project.
 

Objectives:
The objective of the training is to
 • Provide training on writing Use Cases and formats to capture Use Cases.
 • Provide training on Use Case Points Estimation for Software Size Estimation.
 • Create an understanding on counting and calculating Use Case Points.
 • Understand the advantages and limitations of this method.
 • Gain an understanding on measuring productivity using Use Case Point and there by deriving software effort and schedule- With Practical Example.
 • Hands on for the practitioners on Use Case Point Calculation and arrive at the project effort and schedule.
