News Portal Application Use Case Diagram
About the Project
More and more, computers are creeping into every aspects of school life. We are living in a fast-paced world where everything is done instantly. News writers and bloggers are using computers to ease the time burden associated with the publication of their articles and news. Good software and meaningful applications provide substantial benefits for writers and bloggers as well: vastly improved communication, greater accountability, and greater objectivity in evaluation.
A news portal application is a type of software application that allows users to access and view news articles and other types of content from a variety of sources. The application may provide users with the ability to browse through different categories of news, such as national news, international news, sports, entertainment, and so on.
The news portal application may also allow users to customize their news feed by selecting specific topics or sources that they are interested in. In addition, the application may provide users with the ability to save or bookmark articles for later reading, as well as share articles with others through social media or other platforms.
What is Use Case Diagram?
A use case diagram is a type of diagram used in the field of software engineering to describe the behavior of a system from the perspective of the stakeholders or actors who interact with it. In a capstone project, a use case diagram can be used to represent the various ways in which the system being developed will be used by different actors.
Use case diagrams can be helpful in a capstone project for several reasons:
- They provide a high-level view of the system and its functionality, allowing stakeholders to understand how the system will be used and what it will do.
- They can be used to identify and organize the various scenarios or cases in which the system will be used. This can help the development team focus on the most important features and functionality of the system.
- They can help the development team identify and document the relationships between different actors and the system, as well as the interactions between the actors and the system.
- They can be used to validate the system’s requirements and ensure that the system being developed will meet the needs of the stakeholders.
