Structured Scenarios - am I going the wrong way?
« on: June 21, 2010, 02:22:15 pm »
I'm interested in knowing what success people are having with Structured Scenarios...

I'm running into some problems and I'm wondering if I'm going in the wrong direction.

When describing a step in the structured specification tab (as part of defining a Use Case) I'm highlighting elements of text to be identified as classes in the Domain model. Right clicking on the highlighted text allows me to "Insert Context Reference" to another element in the model.

In this case I'm selecting classes from the list of domain objects.

Several things stand out from this process...

1. The structured scenario editor is appending the selected item at the end of the "Action" - is this intended to be appearing in the "Uses" column?

2. I am unable to drill down to the attribute level when selecting the "context reference" where I'll often be wanting to specifically link to an attribute - has anyone found a way around this?

3. If I select a class that has been linked to a structured scenario in this fashion... is there any way to show what has been linked to the class?

4. I'd love to distinguish (with colour) classes and definitions in the project glossary, has anyone found a method to achieve this?

5. I've noticed that all of these references seem to be discarded when generating a RTF Use Case but I've raised a user request on that issue.

So... has anyone made any good progress with the structured scenarios?
