In a use case, which is one of the two commonly used relationships?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

There are two commonly used relationships between use cases:

Extend: allows for the insertion of additional behavior into a use case. The use case that is being extended must be completely functional in its own right and must not depend on the extending use case for its successful execution. This relationship may be used to show that an alternate flow has been added to an existing use case (representing new requirements).

Include: allows for the use case to make use of functionality present in another use case. The included use case does not need to be a complete use case in its own right if it is not directly triggered by an actor. This relationship is most often used either when some shared functionality is required by several use cases or to abstract out a complex piece of logic.

If you ask me, the 'Distribute' option is for when your use case is feeling generous and wants to share itself with the whole class. Just don't let it get out of hand, am I right?

You're right, 'Distribute' doesn't really fit in this context. It's either 'Inherit' or 'Extend'.

I think 'Distribute' is not the right answer, it's either 'Inherit' or 'Extend'.

D) Extend, for sure. Anything else would be a stretch, am I right?

Wait, wait, wait... 'Distribute'? Is that like when you take one use case and make a bunch of copies of it? Sounds like a recipe for confusion to me.

I think it's gotta be 'Extend'. That's the one that's like, 'Hey, use case, you can add some extra stuff to yourself if you want!' Right?

Yeah, 'Inherit' makes sense now.

Nah, man, it's 'Inherit'. You know, when one use case is like, 'I'm gonna be just like that other use case, but with a few extra bells and whistles.'
