Alternate path of alternate path

[rnv]

Hi,

I have a complex use case scenario that i am trying to model. I can specify basic and alternat path in use case Scenario window.

but my alternate path have althernate path itself. seems like i canot specify that in EA.

how to resolve this issue? please help.

I can directly create activity diagram but the main reason i would like to specify as use case scenario is to be able to create test cases automatically.

regards,
rnv

Simply you cannot create alternate path of alternate path in EA.

In my opinion this constraint is correct.
Maybe your first alternate path should be a basic path for another use case?

oh.. then:

is how to specify that the end of a use case starts another use case in scenario?

is there a way to create complete test cases based on two use cases?

I use activity or BPMN diagram to show flow between use cases, try to keep the use cases simple and (as suggested) use an extends from an alternate flow to another use case when a complex alternate process is needed.

You would then have test cases for each scenario in each use case and an end to end test case which stitchs together the relevant scenarios.

Thank Rober S,

as suggested i divided my flow chart into three separate use cases. but now i do not know how to create connected between three three use cases.
will appreciate any help. an example will be perfect.

use an extends from an alternate flow to another use case when a complex alternate process is needed

how do i exactly do that.

You would then have test cases for each scenario in each use case and an end to end test case which stitchs together the relevant scenarios

Do you mean to stich in created rtf? sorry i am pretty new here.
