Use Case models are arguably one of the best way to convey the context of a software system. However, despite their value, use cases are underused in agile software development. This lightweight guide presents how to apply the old-but-good Use Cases in agile contexts. It's very illustrative and introduces the idea of how uses cases can be explored via stories that help to identify user-case slices for incremental implementation. An enjoyable reading for you all, RUPies! :)

This book is short and sweet. It will teach you how to write and think about use cases. Author is the guy who initially came up with the idea of use case for gathering requirements.

Отличный туториал для того чтобы разобраться в теме use case, много инфографики и вариативных разъяснений. Однако, мне кажется слишком много повторений, можно было бы объяснить гораздо короче.

Good guide although you need to have software development experience, have a lot of theory. But describes the real way to apply use cases in an effective and adaptable approach.
